Madelyn started preschool this year and I was a bit of a wreck on the first Wednesday she attended because that is the day the kids stay an hour later so they can eat lunch at school. A few thoughts that raced in my mind where: what would she think about eating with other kids, they are like aliens to her, what would I pack for her to eat, and what on earth would I pack her lunch in? My first thought was to put some carrots and crackers in a couple of small ziplocks and put them inside a big ziplock and send her on her way. It’s been a long time since I sent a child to preschool.. about 8 years.
I was thrilled for Madelyn when I got the Citizenpip Soup to Nuts kit! I can’t imagine having a more perfect lunch kit for her to take to school. She is able to open the bag and the containers herself so she doesn’t have to ask the teachers for help.
THE SOUP TO NUTS KIT INCLUDES:
* • 1 insulated lunch bag with nametag and carabiner that easily attaches to a backpack
* • 1 stainless steel water bottle
* • 1 stainless steel insulated food jar – too big to take to school but perfect for when we’re in the car traveling.
* • 4 BPA-free airtight food containers – Madelyn is able to open and close the containers.. important to her teachers don’t want to kick her out of school!
* • 1 stainless steel fork + spoon set
* • 5 100% cotton napkins – Madelyn LOVES the napkins. She uses them at school and home.
The Soup to Nuts Kit gives you lots of options for packing lunch. With four BPA-free airtight food containers, including one that perfectly fits a sandwich, and an insulated double-wall stainless steel food jar that keeps food hot or cold, it gives you maximum flexibility! PB&J one day and mac n’ cheese the next day? No problem! You can pack pretty much anything your kids want to eat for lunch. Added perks, no squished sandwiches, 1 napkin for each day of the week, and a water bottle that does double-duty as an ice pack. Included is a stainless steel fork and spoon set for spaghetti twirling and soup slurping.
Citizenpip is muck-free: no lead, BPA, PVC, or phthalates.
Where can I buy it? Citizinpip
How much is it? $55

Whenever they get bento lunches I have to pack a ton because everyone thinks they are the coolest thing ever and wants to share. Even after a few years it is still a treat for them.

The first day of my son’s kindergarten class. He didn’t remember which lunch box was his so he sat next to his friend who shared his lunch with my son.

When my oldest daughter was two, we had gone out to lunch at a buffet with my parents. We were all enjoying our meal when we happened to glance at my daughter. In the space of about 2 seconds, she had taken her shirt off. I guess it was too warm in there for her! She just giggled and it took quite a bit of work to get her shirt back on her. Now that she is 15, I am not sure she would appreciate me telling that story!

I like the tasty one. I love that the containers are BPA free.
my favorite is tasty because of all the color.
Bay Lentil is still i the discovery phase when it comes to eating, and I’m often greeted with firmly shut lips. So my favorite moments are when she likes a new food and not only accepts it, but practically dives onto the spoon and devours the food as if she hasn’t eaten in weeks
I like the yum style
Thank you for the giveaway. My favorite style is the “tasty” because, it has really cute designs and more colorful.

And a funny lunch story…Apparently on Tuesday, my son went to open his trail mix and it went “kaboom” all over the place. He found it hilarious (though I’m sure whoever helped clean it up didn’t). Plus he was more excited when grandma (who teaches there) offered him a special treat from her room in place of it. Luckily, that’s the most eventful experience he’s had at lunch time!
That’s sweet that his Grandmother gave him a special treat. I wonder if he occasionally spills his snacks on purpose now? 🙂
