Overall, a kid’s cooler lunch bag has only specific set of roles i.e. it has to transport food from your kitchen to your kid’s cafeteria, it should keep a meal reasonably intact and possibly cold, and the bag itself carries serious importance for most little eaters.

The most common questions that I am often bombarded by most of the parents are “How to keep the hot food hot, and the cold food cold? Will kids eat “hot food” cold, or at least… at room temperature?”

The answer is: “Yes, kids love to eat hot food hot and cold foods cold when they’re hungry! Many recipes that your child enjoys hot will be equally enjoyed cold or at room temp, but you have to do a trial and error process here by trying out different recipes.”

• Start packing food in kid’s lunch cooler bag. A cooler bag will not cool the food down, and therefore, the sandwich would not be cool at lunchtime.
• Brown bags, cute cotton totes, old-school lunch boxes … these things are really adorable but for kids taking lunch to school, they aren’t the best choice.
• Instead go for a lunch box that will keep the food cool while your kids are learning.
• Always use an ice pack! Using a cold pack or frozen juice boxes should carry your child’s lunches through the morning to lunchtime. This matters because tossing ice cubes reduces the risk of food-borne illness.
• Keep your kid’s lunch cooler bags always clean! If you are using reusable water bottles for your kids, then you need to clean them after every use. Experts suggest using only dishwasher-safe bottles and BPA Free lunch cooler bags for kids!

Pack a meal that remains fresh, stays safe, un-squished and delicious all the way though lunchtime!
