In India we generally use steel lunch box keep them up

The EasyLunchboxes are our favorite. Both kids have ADHD and are VERY prone to losing things. These are inexpensive enough that it is not too big of a deal to replace a lost one but still good quality. And the key part is they are easily available. We learned the hard way to never let an adhd kid get too attached to something that is hard to find to replace if lost!

$45 for four silicone bags noooooooooooppppeeee 🖐🏽

[@bethanyjohns9943]

Yes they’re pricey, but oh my goodness they’re so worth it. They’re dishwasher and microwave safe, they last forever, and they’re more durable than the single use bags. Kids are so rough on stuff and mine ALWAYS chews on, pokes, stabs, and destroys plastic baggies. These are definitely worth the investment

[@macym4681]

Reusing Ziploc bags is much cheaper and it works just as well

I use the same thing but it’s cheaper you can get them at Whole Foods

[@javierramirez282]

Shut up please bruh they make vids to help us

[@duckygoesquackquack848]

@@macym4681 I don’t think you should reuse plastic bags like that. Since they’re made for single use chemicals could run off. (My mom told me this is I’m not 100% sure if it’s right but I still don’t think you should reuse plastic bags)

Thank you for helping make people more aware to reduce trash! Awesome! I loved the freezer friendly lunchbox. Never saw it before! Thanks for the great tips!

[@vzmkitty]

My 3 year old picked out that exact PackIt lunchbox for preschool this year. I was surprised because I thought she'd prefer one with animals on it but she was adamant she wanted that one. I love being able to toss the whole thing in the freezer and not have to remember the ice pack, and the design is really attractive to me as well.

[@toffeetvpk]

This is very helpful. Especially for new moms, these lunch boxes can be helpful for mothers to carry healthy snacks for themselves and their children. ♥️

my family and i’s favorite lunch containers are the ziplock ones! they’re like the easy lunch box and have an awesome air tight close! we’ve used them for years! they’re super easy to clean ( dishwasher safe ) and can be reused 1,000s of times!!!! 10/10

[@deedee_audie7461]

I can definitely recommend the planet box. I’ve had mine since 6th grade and now I’m in high school and it’s still good as new. And one of my favorite things about it is it’s stain and smell resistant so if I make a salad the smell of the dressing won’t stick around like how it does in plastic containers. They also have different kinds for smaller kids and adults.

My kids have the full-size (Rover) PlanetBox and the 1/2 size one for almost three years now!!! Best investment EVER! We use the big one on school days and the small one for beach & park play dates. Best of all, I just place it in the dishwasher at night and it’s spotless clean. Waaaaay worth the investment. Plus, you can switch out the magnets. Game changer.

I 100% recommend the PACKIT repositional bento box, I’m obsessed with organizing and it made me so happy when i got one

[@milomakesmusiccovers]

Here’s a tip: Take a little piece of card stock,write something on it, and put clear tape on top. Then take a half and half ratio of dish soap and paint, mix, and apply to the tape. Let it dry (overnight is best) and then it’s a diy scratch off card!! Note - instead of using tape, you can write your message in crayon and souring the rest in white crayon, and then just directly put the mixture on top of the place you put crayon!

I wish you guys would offer more affordable ideas 😒🙁 some of the items were reasonably priced, but most of them were ridiculously expensive😮🤑 I'm a mom of 2 on a one income and unlike you guys were not rich. So its really hard to watch your tips and tricks when I know that every time the products are going to be REALLY cool but VERY expensive. Maybe try including more affordable items for families that are on a tight budget? And can't afford to spend $45 for 4 silicone snack bags🙄

[@ylan05]

Christina Bullock totally know why you mean, but little tip, sometimes it on to splurge on things like these, think of them as an investment for your kids if anything. Kids will use these for years and years and if good quality you can pretty much keep them forever 💓 just a little tip ;) 💞

[@charleyc5031]

For the silicon snack bags, I find that silicone zip bags normally used to store things like pasta are an amazing alternative and really cheap- in my local home bargains (I'm from brittain) it is four for a pound x

[@christinabullock3542]

@@ylan05 i understand that tho things can be investment. But there still expensive. I buy my kids containers just like that for half the price! Or cheaper. All I'm saying is why Can't they show a cheaper option that is just as good.
