Back to School Must Haves - Eco Lunchboxes

My oldest son, Ashton, is getting ready to go into the fourth grade this year. For the first couple years that he was in school - we paid for and he ate hot lunch at school everyday. Then I happen to watch this documentary about school lunches. It talked about the sodium, fat, sugar and all the preservatives that are kids were putting into their bodies everyday just from school lunches. It talked about the amount of sugar that goes into a kids body over just one week from drinking chocolate milk at school each day.

I'm totally one of those moms. And freaked out.
We try to eat pretty healthy in our house.

After that, I started packing Ashton's lunch everyday.
He never seemed to mind.

I try to mix it up for him - sandwiches some days, wraps and every hot lunches about once a week.

The problem I've heard from some parents that either already pack lunches for their kids or want to. Is that they wonder about the number of plastic sandwiches baggies that are getting tossed everyday day.

That's why I like ECOlunchboxes, these cute little stainless steal containers are BPA free, lead free, resusable for years, very reasonably priced...and they're cute! 


This is the two piece oval lunchbox.  This would be perfect for a sandwich, some veggies and a dig or noodles to go into the smaller container. It's dishwasher safe and only $24. 

I also like the reusable bags, these are perfect for chips or crackers! 


With my bags, I use them all throughout the week and wash them every Friday - just dumping out any crumbs as the week goes on. These are so handy to have. 

Well, that's my two cents today about my back to school must haves! Make sure and stop by Ecolunchbox and check it out. You can also click here to get $4.99 priority shipping or stop by and take this small quiz to get 10% off your entire order!

  1. Hi! I'm your newest follower and found you in Tasteful Tuesdays. I've really enjoyed going through your archives! I prefer homemade sandwiches to "those kinds" :) anyways, but this was a good reminder!
