Prepping for School Lunch

Prepping for an Easy School Lunch

August 26, 2019 · In: Lifestyle, Momlife

This post was sponsored by Stretch Island as part of an Influencer Activation and all opinions expressed in my post are my own.

Can you believe that I am already thinking about fixing those school lunches? The school year is practically here as is my list of school necessities and gear. I will have 3 in school, so that is 3 times the lunches. Here is how I am prepping for easy school lunches.

School Lunch

Organized Lunch Gear

The best thing I have done in regard to lunch gear is finding a lunch box that keeps things organized. It not only makes it easier to prep, but also makes it more fun for my kids. You can find all sorts of different lunch box organization products!

School LunchSchool Lunch

Prepping the food.

Like any other meal, I try to prep ahead of time for the kids’ school lunches. I know what my kids like and can have it all picked up from Walmart before the week begins. My oldest is loving to help prep her lunch which I think is great! I make sure to have items that she can easily place in her lunchbox, like the Stretch Island Strawberry Fruit Leather.

School Lunch

Stretch Island Fruit Leather is made from a vegan recipe, 100% fruit ingredients, and no synthetic colors or artificial flavors. I can’t forget to mention there is 0 sugar added! This better-for-you option is the perfect addition to any lunch box, and my kids can pack them since they are all individually wrapped. I even love the fact that I can pick them up easily at Walmart, either while shopping inside or through Grocery Online.

Nothing like having go-to snacks and lunch items that your kids enjoy. While you are at Walmart grabbing the Stretch Island Fruit Leathers, make sure to enter the Back to School Sweepstakes!

    My son isn’t old enough for school quite yet but he’s old enough to always ask for snacks when we’re out. I always keep snacks in my bag and these fruit leathers look like a great option!

This window was driving me crazy. It is most definitely hard to reach due to the clawfoot tub out front. I wanted something that I could truly open and close whenever I wanted because this girl does love a good backyard view- just not when it’s time to take a shower 🫣

The Yoolax Motorized Blackout Roller Shade brings privacy at your convenience. Those hard-to-reach bathroom windows have nothing on this shade. It has one-touch Smart Control, basically control the shade from an app. I can open / close it without ever touching the window area. It was easy to install, and it was ready for instant privacy control. Check out the motorized blackout roller shades as well as other Yoolax smart shades and blinds for an easy window upgrade!
