I like to put notes in her lunch to let her know I’m thinking about her. I also buy a special “surprise dessert” for her lunch now and then…like her favorite candy bar.
Thanks!
i leave a note in their lunch box hehe ~
I have sent notes in my son’s lunch before and also little chocolate Hershey kisses.
I was reprimanded by all 4 kids on the first day of school. I packed six lunches that morning including mine and my husbands and forgot all the notes. Boy did I hear it when they came in my classroom at school. Lesson learned!
I like the lunchbox notes.
Those lunchbox notes are so cool, i wish i got those in my lunch when i was a kid! I like to use cute cookie cutters for sandwiches and sometimes I put in a special piece of candy or sticker for a nice surprise
I kiss her on the hand and let her put the kiss to her heart and whenever she misses me she knows my love is with her.
I write a note and put it in my son’s lunch box each day
I sometimes put surprises in her lunch.
I take the first day of school off every year so I can walk the kids to school and home again. I put hello notes in the lunch boxes and start the day with hugh hugs.
My mom would sometimes put a note in my lunchbox. I loved that.

I am excited about Bug ‘Ems. My dd would love to find a bug waiting for her at breakfast one morning.
I like to surprise my little girl by going up and having lunch with her on occasion. I love that proud look on her face!
We usually get to go out for ice cream when they come home and I will have a little something special treat or toy for them waiting when they come home.

I send her little note cards in her lunch box to let her know I love her! And I bring her a snack when I pick her up…today, I didn’t and she noticed….However, I had planned on us going to the bakery for fresh cupcakes to celebrate the end of week one of preschool!

The lunch bag notes are so adorable and such a great idea!
Last year my daughter was in kindergarten, but couldn’t read until the end of the year. I started the first day of school by putting a note in her lunch, thinking one of the lunch monitors would read it for her. She came home that afternoon and told me matter of factly that she couldn’t read my note (and didn’t seem to care about it).
I like put notes in their lunches.
