We love these lunch boxes and have one for each of our 5 kids. I was so tired of the waste of plastic bags and such. These have been a great solution. The different compartments make it easy to ensure the kids are getting foods from different food groups. My older kids (ages 8 & 6) are able to pack their own lunches with these kits. They are cute and sturdy. After many washes and uses (over several months), the patterns can start to scuff and fade a little, but that hasn’t been an issue in terms of use or enjoyment. Finding these lunch boxes has made school prep so much easier in our home.
