Lunch box notes are a fun way to brighten your child’s day and let them know you’re thinking about them. Including a heartfelt or funny note in your child’s lunch can boost their mood midday, especially if they’re having a tough day at school.

And I understand the impact because I’ve seen it with my kids. Since I made these cards, I’ve sent them to school with my kids and watched how they were when they came home. They were less stressed, happier, and even gave me a hug (gasp!).

They’ll even talk about their favorites! The funny notes and jokes that make them laugh, or make their friends laugh, or are just especially meaningful get a mention as we’re cleaning out lunch boxes or packing lunch for school.

Plus, they create a cute way to make lasting memories that your kids will cherish for years to come (ex: remember when you used to send those notes in my lunch box?).

  • Make it an art project by providing various supplies, like stickers or colored markers, for them to create their own unique note designs.

Lunch box notes can create lasting memories for your children, as they associate those special moments with your love and support. To further enhance this emotional connection:

  • Keep a collection of the notes you’ve used throughout the year, and present them to your child as a keepsake at the end of the school year.
