Pack a napkin and utensils.
Pack a drink.
Tips:
Instead of packing a juice box, buy a sealable Sippy cup or thermos that you can fill with milk, water, or juice.
Reduce the calories and sugar content of the juice by filling half the cup with juice and half with water. It’ll save money and be healthier.
Buy a 2 lb. container of vanilla Greek yogurt. Greek yogurt has lots of protein and you can save money buying it in bulk and repacking it into Tupperware. Add granola or chocolate chips to make it more enticing.
Try adding a dipping sauce such as ranch for veggies, ketchup for nuggets, or mustard for deli meat.
