Children's diet at school affects their focus, health, and overall well-being. Enhancing lunchboxes can have a significant impact! A child's daily energy intake is about one-third from their school lunchbox, presenting a key opportunity to enhance nutrition and well-being.
Everyday foods support children's growth and learning. By replacing occasional treats with healthier options, we are preparing children for optimal physical, mental, and behavioral performance at school and home.
