Lunch Packing Made Simple

“I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Rubbermaid. I received product samples to facilitate my review as well as a promotional item to thank me for my participation.”

With only a few weeks left of summer, I am trying hard to cherish the fun times that we have together with just the kids & I during the day.  This includes hitting up the swimming pool, long afternoons in the backyard, & staying up past bedtime just because we can.  As much as I am soaking up the summer, I am definitely in back to school mode.  We have done our shopping for school supplies, picked out some new back to school shoes, & ordered the new lunchbox.  With school approaching, it’s time for me to get ready for another year of packing lunches.

I have to admit that I am not a super creative lunch packer.  I often make my kids help me fill their lunch boxes & am scrambling at the last minute to get their lunch packed before we are out the door.  I’m not sure if my son envies the kids that may come to school with a bus-shaped sandwich & fruit shapes cut out with cookie cutters, but I’m not sure that will ever happen in this house!  But there is something that makes lunch packing just slightly easier in this house: Rubbermaid LunchBlox.

My oldest son does not eat sandwiches which can make packing lunches everyday difficult.  One of his favorite things to take for lunch is a simple salad topped with carrots, cucumbers, bacon, & croutons.  The Rubbermaid LunchBlox salad kit is perfect.  It stacks & stays organized in his lunch box.    The Blue Ice pack keeps the salads cool & snaps right to the container.  My son likes all the small compartments to hold his toppings & the leakproof small container to hold his dressing so he can mix his salad at lunch.

Thanks to the Rubbermaid LunchBlox, lunch packing is simple.  No searching for Ziploc bags & different containers, instead you have everything you need to pack the lunch in one simple set.  And since I’m not one to make “cute” with the actual food that goes in the lunch, I decided last year to get creative & try to remember a special lunch note in there from time to time.  Today, I am sharing some fun lunchbox notes that you can print yourself on card stock paper & put in the lunchbox to make your child’s lunch just a little more special!
