Fun Idea for Back-to-School Lunches


Last Monday, I surprised the kids with these little water bottles. It was a spur-of-the-moment idea and actually helped calm my night-before-school jitters.  A few strips of patterned paper, self-adhesive labels, Sharpies and VOILA!  Abby and Noah thought they were really cool so I just thought I'd share this super simple way to send a special back-to-school message to your kiddos. 

Here's to a great year...
and to calming those back-to-school mommy jitters!

I love how little things like that can make a kid's day. I always put little notes in my kids' lunch bags and they are always SO EXCITED about them. So fun.

I love those water bottles. Too cute. :)

So cute! I have found some really cute printable lunchbox notes that I am saving for when my Kindergartener has lunch at school next year!
