The school holidays always seem to fly by, don't they? Before you know it, it's time to pack lunch boxes again and get everyone out the door on time.

A quick lunch box refresh before Term 3 starts can make busy mornings so much easier. Here's our simple checklist to make sure you're ready for the weeks ahead.

1. Pack a food jar for warm winter lunches

Cold mornings call for warm lunches.

A quality insulated food jar is perfect for:

• Pasta

• Fried rice

• Leftover dinners

• Curry

• Mac and cheese

Simply preheat the food jar with boiling water for a few minutes before filling, and lunch stays warm until school.

2. Don't forget the cutlery

It sounds obvious ... until you're packing leftovers and realise there's no spoon or fork!

Reusable lunch box cutlery is lightweight, easy to wash and means your child can actually enjoy foods like.

3. If your child hates soggy sandwiches, this is a game changer

If you've ever opened a lunch box after school to find untouched sandwiches, sogginess could be the culprit.

The b.box Lunch Pocket helps keep sandwiches separate from moisture, making them fresher and much more appealing by lunchtime.

It's one of those simple additions that can make a big difference.

4. Swap expensive yoghurt pouches for reusable ones

Store-bought yoghurt pouches are convenient, but they quickly add up.

Reusable yoghurt pouches let you:

• Save money every week

• Reduce single-use waste

• Choose exactly what goes inside

• Fill with yoghurt, smoothies, custard or purees

• Reuse them again and again

They're a simple swap that's better for your budget and the planet.

5. Give your lunch box a fresh start

If your current lunch box has seen better days, the start of a new term is the perfect excuse for an upgrade.

A well-organised lunch box makes packing quicker, keeps food fresher and helps everything fit neatly.

Whether you're replacing an old favourite or buying your child's first lunch box, starting the term organised makes the morning rush that little bit easier.
