Lunchskins!

We were very excited to get Lunchskins in!  They are made by a company called 3GreenMoms in the States and appeal to us on many levels.  They are made from fabric (not plastic), are made domestically, support fellow mompreneurs and are good for the environment.

You can read lots of information on their website, but here’s our review.

We love them!  They take up less space in our lunchbags and you can really put pretty much anything in them, short of soup or yogurt.

Sarah’s kids take sandwiches in the sandwich size bag, the whole family has used the snack size, and great big lunches go in the sub-sized bag:

This is a BIG Florida orange in the sub-sized bag

The lunchskins take up a fraction of the space of a traditional plastic container, which is great when you have hungry people to pack for.  They wash up easily – they are dishwasher safe, but we just wash them by hand – and dry inside-out overnight, ready for the next day.

So far, they’ve just been used for food at our house, but we can easily see the kids filling them with other things.  We will be watching for tadpoles in the spring!

All in all, a two thumbs up review from our family.

I heart Goodbyn.  I heart the person or product development team that came up with the Goodbyn.  These are the smartest lunchboxes I have seen in a long time (really, since my old Star Wars lunchbox that came with a thermos in the top half – remember those?)  They are made of everything-friendly plastic and hold A Lot of food.  Enough to feed my 8-year-old for a day, and then some.  You don’t need extra plastic bags, or additional containers – it all fits in here.  And now to make them even cooler for the adults older kids in your house, they’ve released the “No ears” version.
