For Kids Only
If you want your children to eat lunch, send foods they'll enjoy. Brainstorm together to create a list of lunches that you both agree on. Once at school, they'll be influenced by peer pressure, so respect this and help find foods that are "acceptable."
Don't worry if they want the same lunch over and over again. As long as it's healthy, it doesn't matter. Offer alternatives from time to time in case they have a change of heart.
Think about what else your child will be eating during the day. If he didn't drink milk for breakfast, you may want to put cheese or yogurt in his lunch.
Juice boxes are terrific, but make sure that they're fruit or vegetable juices and not fruit drinks. You can freeze them and they'll thaw in your child's lunch box.
