Back to school means back to a routine, back to feeling crazy busy and back to packing lunches. Aside from the daily content question of what to pack, have you given much thought to how you’re packing your lunches? A waste-free lunch by definition is one that contains no throwaway packaging or food leftovers. In terms of lunch gear products, re-usability is the number one factor when packing a waste-free lunch. A second factor, critical for your child’s health, is non-toxicity and a final factor to consider is durability. If you’re going to invest in reusable lunch gear, it makes sense to ensure it’s made to last. It also makes sense to encourage your child’s input on colours and patterns to encourage them to pack up their reusables for taking home.
Out with the old and in with the new or so the saying goes. This is particularly fitting as we are all tossing out our potentially toxic plastic bottles and cups and hunting for new healthier choices. The Safe Sippy is a fantastic alternative and was created to accomplish one goal: Clean In, Clean Out.
