Lunchboxes
PlanetBox Rover
PlanetBox Rover
The PlanetBox is an investment. It's pricey, but it lasts for years and years (ours are still in perfect condition after 5+ years!). It's stainless steel, easy to clean, easy to pack and easy to open. There are containers that fit inside so you can pack liquids and things like hummus or yogurt and they won't leak. We have all three sizes, but the Rover is the one we use most often. Below you'll also see the Launch and the Shuttle.
LUNCHBOTS CINCO
This lunchbox is a big winner around here. It’s easy to pack, easy to open and easy to clean. The sections are not leakproof, so I like to line them with parchment or wax paper to prevent food from leaking.
Planetbox Launch
PlanetBox Launch
This is a GIANT lunchbox. It's got room for a ton of food, which is great for adults or for those days when your kids seem to be a bottomless pit (hello, growth spurt!) Also perfect for those days when kids need an extra snack for after school or camp and you only want to use one container.
PlanetBox Shuttle
Planetbox Shuttle
Don't let the small size deceive you. The PlanetBox Shuttle fits a ton of food, but it's compact with just two compartments, so it fits into a wide variety of lunch bags. It's stainless steel, easy to pack and clean and my tween loves it.
Monbento
Yumbox Original
Yumbox original
The original Yumbox was the first bento style box that I ever purchased. Easy to use, easy to pack, easy for little hands to open, it's no wonder that Yumbox has been so successful. This model is perfect for kids who like a little of this and a little of that for lunch.
Yumbox Panino
Yumbox Panino
The Yumbox Panino has three main compartments plus a small one that we typically use for a snack. Great for packing things like sandwiches, or for lots of pieces of avocado sushi, like you see here!
Lunchbots
Compact and easy to carry, the Lunchbots Trio fits a perfect amount for school or camp lunch. It's stainless steel and super easy to clean. Note: this is not leakproof.
Accessories
dressing/sauce containers
CuteZCute sauce/syrup containers
These little containers are absolutely perfect for packing salad dressing, maple syrup, soy sauce, you name it! We have two types of sauce/syrup containers and use both of them frequently. Here's the second.
Silicone Cupcake Liners
These have been an absolute game changer for me. I got them years ago for baking and began using them in lunchboxes to separate items. Cannot recommend them enough!
Reusable Straws
Save the planet. Save the oceans. Curb unnecessary waste. Teach your kids about protecting the environment and get these reusable straws.
Wilton Lollipop Sticks
Lollipop Sticks
Everything tastes better on a stick, right? I use these so often in lunches because it makes eating fun for the kids. These 4 inch sticks are perfect for sandwich kebabs, fruit kebabs, you name it!
Lunchbox Love Notes
Lunchbox Love
Hands down, these are my favorite notes to include in my kids' lunches. The messages are sweet and uplifting, funny and clever.
Sandwich and cookie cutters
I don't use sandwich and cookie cutters very often in my lunchboxes, but when I do, these are the ones that I prefer. I like them because they're simple and easy to use for small hands, when my kids get involved.
