The other day we talked about creating a customize lunch box for your child by using digital scrapbooking pages (read: Get Ready for Back to School by making a Digital Scrapbooking Lunch Box! ), now let’s figure out what to put in that lunch box!
How special your child will feel with a customized lunch box that perhaps you and the child have made together!

Write a Special Note for your Child and put it into their Lunch Box!
Ideas for lunch box notes:
Now the lunch boxes are filled with fun food, how about writing a special love note, or a congratulations for your good grades note, or thinking of you today note, or lots of good thoughts for you as you take your test note! Really, any special and personalized note will do.
Pack a lunch box note every so often to remind your kids that you are thinking of them! Also, consider adding jokes, trivia, a quote, and tongue twisters too!
I always loved finding a surprise note in my lunch box as a kid. It is fun be remembered in some way.
But don’t just scribble a note on a paper! Take your lunch box love notes to the next step by digital scrapping it!
Open up Photoshop Elements or Photoshop and make several special notes at a time, or one for each of your children! Add digital scrapbooking paper, embellishments, and text. Then fold and write a special note inside!
