Paper or Plastic?

When you’re a kid, there’s nothing worse than a smashed peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Most “I don’t want to eat it” and other such picky eating kids certainly won’t touch it at lunch time. Luckily, for all personality types, lunch has come a long way from the brown paper bag and smelly metal lunch boxes. We’ve found some new, easy to clean and resistant to rust choices that will ensure your child’s sandwich will make it to lunch period safe and sound.

 

There are lots of new options for tupperware these days and today’s tip focus on ones that will work for most personality types. We like these LunchBots because they’re sturdy, aren’t some scary plastic from God knows while they’re a bit more expensive, they solve the mushy sandwich problem. Classics (SJs) and Funs (SPs) will appreciate the value and won’t mind cleaning them at days end. But frankly they will work for Organics (NFs) and Smarts (NTs) too as long as they have a few extras lying about for when they (or their kids) inevitably misplace them.

 

If you kid is the type that would lose their head if it wasn’t attached to their shoulders, however, then try out this set of 3 Rubbermaid Takealongs. They are a great value that won’t be missed too much if they don’t make it off the bus. It’s also great for Organic Freedom (NFP) and Smart Freedom (NTP) parents who would also lose their heads if it wasn’t attached. Plus these containers feature 2 extra compartments for snacks and other goodies.
