Clean all lunch boxes, thermal bags, plastic utensils and containers in hot soapy water. DO NOT re-use plastic wrapping and bags.Wash all fruits and veggies under cold running water.

Fun in Preparation.
Let children help make their own lunch.
Children can also help with grocery shopping and suggestions for lunch items.
