Transitioning Toddlers and Preppies to eat out of a lunchbox

When children transition to daycare, kindy, or school, it’s an exciting yet challenging milestone. New routines, environments, and experiences await, and this can sometimes feel overwhelming for little ones. One of the most significant changes they’ll face is their eating routine, especially with the introduction of lunchboxes. While the excitement of starting school or daycare is thrilling, adjusting to the new mealtime schedule can take some time. It’s normal for children to be hesitant about trying new foods or even sticking to familiar ones until they feel more settled. But with a little guidance and preparation, you can make lunchtime a stress-free and enjoyable experience.
