I am looking at replacing our lunch crates. We currently use 28litre plastic 'toy' boxes, but these have a very short life, splitting and breaking very easily. I need something that is stackable when not in use, easy for primary children to carry and reasonably priced. Any suggestions are welcome.

4 Year-Old Lunchbox Ideas

My 4 year old daughter is a fussy eater and all she wants for her packed lunch is cheese and cucumber sandwiches or egg mayo sandwiches. Trying to get her to eat any other filling results in her bringing the whole thing back home uneaten. Keen to get some other ideas and how to get her to expand her tastes.
