Kids Food Festival Gears Up for Back-To-School

School is back in session and kids are gearing up with their shiny new school supplies!  Along with the notebooks, pencil cases, and sneakers, kids also love to show off their special lunch boxes!  Check out some of our favorite, durable, reusable, eco-friendly, and stylish lunchbox items.

Tip: Be sure to add labels with your child’s classroom number on all of her lunch gear, so it can be returned to the correct classroom if left behind in the cafeteria.
