Back-to-school season means kids are packing lunches, and it’s fun to include a little note or surprise inside. My kids love finding a special surprise in their lunchbox or backpack. The Good Stuff’s printable bookmarks and lunch notes can be a sweet surprise for kids—and the best part is that they are free! Stick a little surprise in your child’s lunch box. If they don’t pack their lunch, stick a bookmark inside their reading book or study folder. A special treat from mom or dad in the middle of the day helps them remember how much they are loved.

My son likes peanut butter and jelly, yogurt, and baby carrots for lunch.
My grandson actually prefers the school lunch over bringing a lunch from home. He enjoys the pasta dishes at school and the fresh fruit.
Hi 🙂 My son loves those Lunchables things which I think are overpriced. I don’t know what it is about those things but kids love them. My daughter likes fancy stuff in her bento box. Think Hello Kitty shaped sticky rice 🙂 Thanks!
My son loves burgers and fries.
My son loves peanut butter and jelly and my daughter loves crackers and cheese. I started a “snack basket” at the beginning of the school year, where the kids get to pick their own snacks and put them in their lunch boxes. It helps them take some ownership in their lunches and reduces my stress significantly!

My kids love their juice boxes the most. I don’t know why! They don’t mind what I pack for the meal but the juice selection is the most important decision of the day.
My kids like PB&J, deli sandwiches, chips, cookies, apple slices, cheese sticks, yogurt, carrot or pepper sticks and juice or water.
My girls don’t care what it is, they love to take left overs from the night before!
