School Lunches Inspiration
August 30, 2012 by Aimee • 12 Comments
Half way through the first week of starting school the excitement is still at full speed! I mentioned on my FB Page that I was having lunch with a few friends yesterday. We talked about everything under the moon, but the topics of conversation kept coming back to our sweeties. After a long relaxing summer you can’t help, but miss them, right! This is our first year sending my sweeties to school and so far it’s been complete role reversal, they’re keeping me strong reminding me that they have great teachers and that they adore coming home and cuddling and having me as their mommy full-time!
One of the topics of discussion was packing lunches and I quickly realized that the newness of my sweet B’s fun lunch sacks will eventually lose their novelty and before long variety of the contents inside will become their plea! I’ve been surfing the web in search of fun, creative lunch ideas and thought it might be helpful to share some of my favorite school lunches inspiration pictures with you!

Thank you, thank you! I pinned, too!
Thanks so much for posting – some really fun (and appetizing) ideas! My twins just started kindergarten and I’d already run out of ideas for their lunches, so I need this. Thanks again!
LOVE these suggestions! Maybe Gabrielle would actually eat her lunch if I made it cute

Thanks so much for the feature — great round up!
I will have to add some of these to my list. I made a huge list of things that I could pack broken down into main (sandwich, pasta, etc.), fruits/veggies, and snack and put it on my fridge for safe keeping!
Thrilled I found this, Aimee! I need these ideas so bad right now (:
