A new school year means a chance to pack your kids a lunch that’s fresh, creative and exciting. Besides, peanut butter sandwiches are so last year.
Here are 21 ideas for creative school lunches:
1. A peanut butter, honey and banana sandwich is certainly a step up.
2. Pack them a Bento box full of yummy food.
3. They’ll be the star of the classroom with this banana dog.
4. Make homemade dried fruit for their dessert using just your oven.
5. To avoid apple slices turning brown, use a rubber band to keep all the pieces together.
6. This cheddar and apple sandwich is something you would want for lunch too.
7. Keep their drinks cool with this chill bottle.
8. Pack a delicious fruit smoothie in a small thermos.
9. Use a mason jar to keep salads crisp and fresh.
10. Stick googly eyes onto the sandwich bags for a fun surprise.
11. Scratch a secret message onto a banana peel. Your kids will see it by lunch time!
12. This neat personal cooler will keep their lunch and drink cool for hours.
13. Save your leftover pancakes for an awesome alternative to bread.
14. Turn a boring sandwich into a sandwich ball.
15. Pair peanut butter with banana chips, celery or pretzels for homemade dippers.
16. You can’t go wrong with these pizza buns. Seriously.

18. Heck, while you’re at it… make these mason jar cupcakes too.
19. Turn pb&j into “sushi” rolls.
20. Soak a new sponge in water, freeze it and stick it in a zippered pouch for a homemade ice pack.
