Kids Lunch Box Cards – a review
When I think back to when I was a kid and my mom used to pack a lunch for me, the one thing I remember most was the candy I DIDN’T get. While a lot of the other kids in school would get junk food snacks and candy in their lunches, my mom tended towards the healthy side.
I know parents today are even more concerned about what their kids eat and are still likely “competing” those parents who still pack candy and junk food. Well, now there is a way for you to give your child a treat but not sacrifice the nutritional value of their lunch.
They are called Kids Lunch Box Cards, and quite frankly, I wish I had a lunchbox and someone would pack these cards in there for me!
We received 5 packs of cards (each pack has 5 cards, a weeks worth) to review and although my son does not go to school yet, he has been thoroughly enjoying them.
Here is a slide show showing the cards we received:
Although he is only 4 1/2, Jake has been reading well for over a year now and he really enjoys reading and re-reading the cards. He laughs at all of them! His favorite is the one about ketchup ice cream. Yeah, seriously. You’ll have to get your own though to find out what I am talking about. From wacky trivia and looney laws, to gross facts and riddles, these colorful cards are filled with strange and funny things. I sat by myself and read them all after he went to bed, they are so neat! Some of them even have a scratch off section which he just loved!
Kids Lunch Box Cards are a unique way to let your kids know you are thinking about them while they are at school, and a way to offer them a unique “treat” without adding junk food or candy. They can also be used in other ways too.
From the website:
Drop the fun into backpacks, overnight bags, coat pockets, even under a pillow. Cards are blank on the back for those days you want to write a special note or reminder. Want to send a long-distance hug? Add a stamp and drop one in the mail!

Hey….what a wonderful idea! I want to try the Kids Lunch Box cards…I really appreciate the idea of feeding your child the right kind of food .I totally agree that candy’s and junk foods contain refined sugar and transfat which has an adverse effect on health.Less sugar, less transfat is better and children do well when they are fed with less of manufactured and processed foods…..I am a working mom and whenever I was away I was always concerned about my kid’s eating habits and I worried how often he eats , how does he makes the choice for food until I found a resource which provided the best ideas on how to develop a good eating pattern in kids.My worries are over,now my kid chooses a healthier food on his own ….. if you want some ideas on developing good eating patterns in kids sign up on http://www.habitchanger.com/
Thanks for the tip, laminating them sounds like a fantastic idea!
Very cute idea. Have you thought about laminating them and mixing in some homemade cards? Then you could cycle them in and out over time and reuse them without them getting mucky in the lunchbox.
