Keep it fresh

When you and your kids are packing their lunch, think about how to keep it fresh until lunchtime. There are lots of easy, waste-free storage options available including ice packs, bento boxes, flasks, beeswax wraps for sandwiches etc.

Using up leftovers for lunch can also be a great way to avoid food waste and very popular with kids — great examples from the Healthy Kids Association can be found here.
