Going back to school after Christmas break means having to come up with new ideas to fill your children's lunch boxes. The idea is to make sure they eat well and are never distracted by hunger while they're at school. Being a responsible mother also means making sure your family gets the best, even on a budget. Kids love being creative and definitely love picking their foods. One great alternative is to let them help you put together their lunch, that way they'll enjoy eating it even more because they got to chose. Plus there will be no excuse for them not to eat it!
