Who wants to feed their child unhealthy cafeteria food when they can eat healthy home food? Apart from his backpack, books, pens, and pencils, your child's lunch box is the next most important thing. Kids simply await their lunch break. They are eager not just to play with other children, but also to eat the excellent meal you have prepared for them. You'll want to get a lunch box that will last you throughout the year so you don't have to continually replace it. This article will assist you in selecting the ideal lunch box for your child. Let's get started.

 

Lunch Boxes for Kids

 

1)  L.L.Bean Lunch Box

 L.L.Bean Lunch Box

 

Because of its proven durability and reliability, the L.L.Bean Lunch Box is our favorite insulated bag. This lunch box is made of the same durable nylon that L.L.Bean's well-known backpacks are made of. Its smooth interior is also easier to clean than many other models' interiors, which have exposed seams and crevices that collect food and dirt.

It has enough storage for many containers and a meal thermos, and an ice pack may be stored in the internal mesh pocket to keep the contents cool. If you need even more space, an expandable version is available, which unzips to add around 2 inches of depth.

This lunch box, like all of L.L.Bean's products, comes with a one-year satisfaction guarantee. The following are a few of the box's flaws: Its soft edges don't do much to protect delicate foods, it's difficult to get strong stains out, and its mesh pockets are prone to catching on things and ripping.

 

2)  EasyLunchboxes Three-compartment Lunchbox Bento

What's great about this lunch bag is that there is no PVC, lead, and vinyl. It doesn't contain BPA and can be used in the microwave, freezer, or dishwasher. So whether it is eating hot or cold foods, this lunchbox has you covered.

That's not everything. If your kid is particular about colors, he has a variety to choose from. The box contains three chambers, none of which leak. Perfect, right? That's not all. You can pack anything extra in the little sauce holders that come with the lunch bag. The lid is easy to open, making it more convenient for the kids to use. Other necessities, such as a water bottle or snacks, can be put in the spare area of the lunch bag. This lunch pack includes everything you need.

It's made of 18/8 stainless steel, so it'll last even if the kids mess with it a little. The food is kept warm by the insulation in the box. There are no plastics or hazardous chemicals in the material. If you care about the environment, Lunchbots is an excellent option.

The main meal and two sides are separated into three compartments. The covers are bright and vibrant, and you can personalize them with your child's favorite design. It has a BPA-free liner and is dishwasher-friendly. The only flaw of this product is that the product is not leak-proof. Therefore, foods must be dry and solid.

 

6)  Bentgo Kids Lunch Box

Bento-style lunch boxes contain handy sections within a solid casing to keep meals separated, safe, and well-organized. For a variety of reasons, the simplified Bentgo Fresh Lunch Box is our favorite bento for kids. For starters, it offers a flexible layout. It's also small enough to fit in a backpack while yet holding enough food for an elementary-aged child (including an entire sandwich, which most bentos can't).

The Bentgo has fewer parts to cope with, which means fewer missing pieces for youngsters (and adults). The removable, dishwasher-safe tray makes cleanup a breeze. The Bentgo is budget-friendly and leak-proof.

 

7)  Small Lunch Bag by Rubbermaid LunchBlox

This lunch bag is available in four vibrant colors: blue, purple, and black. The device is designed to be used with Rubbermaid LunchBlox food containers, but it may also be used with whatever Tupperware you have at home.

It includes a side zip closing, which makes it easy to pack and unpack, according to reviewers. You can also keep additional food in the mesh pockets on either side. The microwave, dishwasher, and freezer are all safe for this lunch box. It's also devoid of BPA.

Many parents who have purchased the PlanetBox Rover Stainless Steel Lunch Box readily admit that it cost more than they had anticipated for a lunch box. They commend its durability in the same breath: The Rover lasts a long time and displays less wear than our other bento choices.

Its simple steel design also makes it the easiest to clean, as the entire unit can be thrown into the dishwasher. The optional insulated bag, which can be purchased as part of a package with the lunch box, offers versatility by allowing you to put a child-size thermos or water bottle, as well as extra food containers, in the outside pockets.

Although the tray itself has no seals and is thus not leakproof, the closed containers that come with it are. PlanetBox also has the best warranty of all our recommendations, with a five-year warranty.

The variety of items that bento boxes can handle is one of the reasons they have grown in popularity. This one has two temperature zones, allowing you to keep hot and cold items in the same container.

The OmieBox Bento Box has a built-in thermos food container and comes in five colorful colors. Soups, for example, stay warm till lunchtime with this method. You won't have to worry about spills because the lunch box is double-walled and leak-proof, and the contents will stay cool and fresh.

This lunch box is popular among parents since it keeps food hot for their children and is adaptable and easy to clean. However, some reviewers have noted that the thermos lid can be difficult to open for younger children, thus this item may be best suited for elementary school students.
