Back to School essentials

Who said kids can not have it all? Safe, eco-friendly and cute essentials when going back to daycare/school ...


WHAT IS A WASTE-FREE LUNCH?

Waste-free lunch for kids going back to daycare or school:
-reusable lunch bag or backpack
-reusable utensils and bowls. Bamboo is a very eco-friendly option.
-reusable placemat.
-reusable waterproof bib or cloth napkin.
-reusable bottle. For babies, choose safe plastic (BPA-free and phthalate-free) bottle. For older kids, choose stainless steel water bottle.
-reusable containers and snack bags. Stainless steel or glass containers are a safe alternative to plastic. Choose cloth snack or sandwich bag instead of plastic bag.
-reusable labels for naming all your kids items.
