My oldest daughter started Kindergarten this year. On the first day of school, I sent a little note in her lunch box. She loooooved it and now requests one for everyday.
What was a quick, one-time thing is now turning into so much more! I love creating these little notes for her lunch box! Each one carries a simple message letting her know how special she is. She brings them home and we are keeping them. One day, I hope she has special memories of her Kindergarten lunch box love notes from mom!
Here are the first few I did when my daughter requested more after Day 1:

Here are some for Halloween:
Here are some for Christmas:
And here are a handful for everyday:
I usually create these cards in the evenings while watching TV. Sometimes I sketch them in a notebook so I'll have the ideas for later. Many times I sketch while I'm sitting in the carpool line waiting on my daughter or just list some themes to work on. I write the notes ahead of time so they are ready to go when I'm making her lunch in the mornings.
My goal is to have a different note for each day. And I hope she doesn't outgrow them before I do. I'm having too much fun! Thanks for visiting!
