When I was a kid I used to tote my lunch to school in the same old boring lunch box. It was the perfect companion to the same old boring lunch tucked inside (sorry mum!). So I try to be a bit more creative with the lunches I make for my first-born now he’s started … [Read more.]
I once worked with a woman who could not bare to eat bananas with any sign of bruising – in my opinion she was eating bananas that were so green they were practically crunchy. Clearly what she needed was a banana protector. Yes, really.
My four-year-old son is thriving at kindergarten and I’m thrilled. Thrilled about all the cute kinder accessories at my fingertips more so than how easily he took to leaving me for a few hours a week, that is.
My daughter started school this year, and I have to say I am finding making lunches a bit of a drag. So this clever little lunch set could be the answer.
In my pre-child days, I often got by with just a bottle of water and a fruit-flavoured lip balm. Now, of course, food goes everywhere my daughter and I go. This leads to the necessity of a lunch bag – and a good one at that. It has to be durable, practical, easy to use, … [Read more.]

I have been using my Lunchskins snack and sandwich bags (featured here in September 2009) for quite a while now and can vouch that they are excellent quality and easy to clean. My boys are used to using them too, which really is a lesson to us parents that kids easily adopt environmentally-conscientious behaviour, even … [Read more.]
