Let’s Get Started

Making school lunches loses its appeal for the average parent about 1.3 weeks into every school year. I haven’t looked it up, but I’m pretty sure there’s got to be some statistical data out there to back that up. Add to that the unique pressure on lunch makers to balance something fun and that our kids will actually eat, with something that’s healthy and will fuel their school day. With some 185 days in the school year, it’s almost impossible to keep the creative momentum up.

What we put into our bodies can affect everything from our moods and behaviour to our ability to focus and process information. 

As a teacher and mum of two teenagers, who knows the struggle is real, I decided to start this blog as a source of inspiration for fun and healthy school lunch and snack ideas. 

Many of my ideas will be homemade, but, because we all know that life is busy and we don’t always have time to whip up fresh batches of homemade goodness, I also plan to share tips for store bought healthy snacks, as well as easy ways to up the lunch fun without a lot of extra work.  

I hope you’ll follow along on this journey – and if you have any fun ideas you’d like to share, please drop me a line in the contact form!
