This post was created in partnership with Stonyfield. All opinions are my own.
We've almost made it through our first week of kindergarten for the twins! Woohoo! The biggest challenge so far for the girls has been listening. Go figure! Also, I need to learn how to pack the perfect amount of food in their lunches so they have time to eat it all. Since they're there from 8:55-3:55, I want to make sure their bellies are full!
I asked the girls to draw their ideal lunch on Monday before school started and it was interesting what they came up with. I thought for sure there would be a cookie added to their list.
Maddie had an emphasis on fruit, since she is going through a "I don't like chicken" phase. I wouldn't be shocked at all if she became an vegetarian when she gets older. They are loving the Honest Kids juice boxes we found at Target. I just freeze them overnight and they are like a little ice pack in their lunchboxes! Another item that is great to freeze: YoKids yogurt pouches. One major plus is they are easy for the kids to open by themselves in the lunchroom.
Olivia had basically the same ideas with fruit, but she also wanted a BIG turkey sandwich. She even said that she can eat Maddie's sandwich at lunch if she doesn't want it. One request: Annie's Bunnies--any flavor.
Every year, Stonyfield and other companies we love join together for #RockTheLunchbox. They offer amazing lunchbox ideas and great coupons! I don't know if I have time to be creative everyday, but I love the inspiration to think outside of the box while providing the twins with healthy lunch options!
I have a fun giveaway so YOU can also join in on the fun! You can win a prize pack from Stonyfield, which includes FREE product coupons, a Bento box and other goodies to make your lunchboxes ROCK! Just enter below!

Yum! It's lunch time...This made me hungry! I absolutely adore the girl's drawings :)
We don't do lunchboxes per say but for the sitters Aubrey never says no to PB&J :)
No problem :) Good luck! We are loving frozen grapes right now.
Thank you :) We have drawings coming out of our ears! It's hard to know what to save!
You'd love the Bento box. Gabby uses ours and loves the different compartments. It's great for travel too! Have you tried grilled PB&J? We throw it on the waffle maker and it's SO good!
Yogurt and cheese!
