Back-to-school time is here and parents are faced with the task of packing their child’s lunch. If you are an on-the-go parent, chances are you will not have the time to make your child’s lunch each day of the week. Additionally, packing an organic bento box can become costly over time.

Here are some tips to help you get through the back-to-school season with ease:

Purchase a metal bento box set. This convenient reusable lunch container can be used for years to come.

Purchase small plastic containers to store snacks, dressings, and sauces that will compliment your child’s organic bento box. These small containers are ideal because they take up less space than the larger ones you would find in the food section of your local grocery store.

Purchase small stainless steel containers that are stackable. These are ideal for storing snacks, dressings, and sauces to compliment your child’s organic bento box. They are easy to clean and take up less space than the larger ones you would find in the food section of your local grocery store.

Purchase disposable plastic containers that are reusable. They can be used for storing snacks, dressings, and sauces to compliment your child’s organic bento box.

Purchase a set of ceramic utensils because they will not get lost or leave marks on plastic containers.

Assemble the items you store in the mini tubs and place them in a canvas shopping bag.

Place the bento box in its own paper bag for storage and transport. Home-packed lunches are healthier than pre-packed store bought items because you know exactly what your child is eating. Packing an organic bento box will ensure that your little one is eating healthy, delicious food instead of junk food at lunchtime. Start your child’s day off right by packing a healthy bento box lunch!
