The perfect lunch box for kids!

Well actually it's what's in it that should be healthy not the box, unless your lunchbox has a secret life!
Your lunch should be a part of your balanced daily diet.
Breads are the easiest to handle for kids at school, and even if they think its boring ask them to look around the stores and bakeries and they'll find some very exciting things out there. Here are some of them:
white sliced, fortified white, high fibre, brown, wholemeal, wheatmeal, rye, fruit, cheese and chives, pumpkin, pitta, Lebanese, brioche, mountain bread and heaps of others - so there is a big choice for you, and a chance to liven up your sandwich straight away.
Fillings ofcourse are the most important part,remember how to avoid soggy sandwiches? Good because you wouldn't want to spoil these. (Spreading a little butter or margarine on the bread will help keep the sandwich from getting soggy if you have a runny filling to put into it, but most sandwiches do not need a lot of butter or margarine.)
Use rice cakes, English muffins, crispbreads and cracker biscuits with cooked chicken drumsticks, cheese and apple, vegetable slice or leftovers and salads. Remember that kids need energy, so don't use low energy rice cakes or crispbreads only, because they will not give your kid enough energy.
