These 12 Insta-Moms Will Give You Major Inspo for Your Kids’ Lunchbox

Getting children to eat healthily isn’t an easy task, especially when you’re not around to make (read: bribe) them. All you can do is send them back to school with a bento box filled with tasty whole foods (and a healthy chocolate treat), and hope they don’t trade it for a bunch of junk food. When it comes to kids’ lunch ideas, Instagram is a huge source of inspiration. If your feed is lacking that, we found 12 Insta-moms that showcase major healthy lunch box goals, and you *need* to follow them all ASAP. Seriously, you’ll wish you were all of these ladies’ kids.

You can’t properly focus on your kids’ lunch when don’t have your own under control. Take a scroll through Raquel’s photos to learn more about intuitive eating and meal approaches for both adults and children.

@thenaturalnurturer

You never know when a positive affirmation or encouraging note will make your kids’ day. Do like Taesha does and sneak one in alongside their strawberries and avocado and see what happens.
