Sometimes one of the hardest things about getting our kids ready in the mornings is packing their lunches. Trying to find a balance between something healthy and something that they are actually going to eat is a challenge for all Moms and Dads. Are you with us?
We know the key is to find snacks that appeal to both our children AND parents. We could put all of the healthy snacks in the world in our kid's lunch boxes, but if they don't eat them, then there is no point. Disney wants to help with better-for-you snacks that give you more options. Here are some examples for treats that you can feel good about giving to your kids. And they will feel good about seeing some of their favorite Disney and Marvel characters inside of their lunch boxes. Look for these fun snacks at your local grocery store! Not gonna lie, we love buying juice boxes with Mickey Mouse on them, it makes us feel like we are at a Disney Park. True Confessions of a Disney Mom!
