Do you know someone starting school in September?
Perhaps you are sending your own little person off to school for the first time or you may be a grandparent or relative of a school starter.
Starting school for the first time can be such an exciting time but also it can be daunting for some (both parents and children alike).
Getting their first uniform (always several sizes too big), and all the other back to school essentials can be a great way to get kids excited about the transition from pre-school or nursery.
Our lunchboxes and snack boxes make the perfect gift for the new school starter!
Here's Why:
Getting kids prepared for eating at school is super important! There's so much other change going on that you want to make sure that getting enough fuel for the day isn't a problem!
School Lunches
If they are going to be having a packed lunch at school, you want to make sure that the lunch box they have is easy to open!
Having tried many lunch boxes over the years, you'd be surprised at how many lunch boxes are actually quite difficult for kids to open.
You want to remove as many barriers as you can when making sure that they eat the food that you send them in with.
We designed our Pick Box Bento and Pick Box Classic with this fully in mind.
Not only are our silicone lunch boxes completely drop proof unlike their plastic counterparts, and therefore made to last, they are super easy for kids to open and close.
School Snack Policy
Most schools will also have a snack policy and will allow children to bring in a morning snack.
Schools will all vary, and you'll need to check your respective school for their policy, but generally this will be a healthy snack of fruit, vegetables, breadsticks and that kind of thing.
Whilst some school will provide free school snacks for children in Reception Year, not all children will want the choices offered as these tend to be quite limited.
So sending your own snack box to school can be beneficial to make sure they have something that you know they will eat.
Our Pick Box Snack has four separate compartments, so you can send in a variety of snacks making sure they are getting enough to fill them up until lunchtime.
If you are looking to purchase either a lunch box or a snack box as a gift for a new school starter but not sure what to buy, then choose one of our School Starter Bundles.
With our School Starter Set, can buy any of our snack and lunch boxes, or the bundle of all three, and we'll also send you a free greeting card to wish them luck on their first day, along with wrapping paper.
