Summer has officially come to an end, and it feels like it flew by in the blink of an eye. Now that the new school term is here, I’m faced with the perennial challenge: what to pack in those lunchboxes? It’s not just about making something nutritious and filling; it needs to stay fresh until lunchtime and, most importantly, be something the kids will actually enjoy eating. It’s quite the balancing act! So, I’ve put together a few creative and healthy lunch ideas to help solve this back-to-school conundrum.

One of my biggest concerns when the kids are at school is ensuring they stay hydrated and get enough vitamins. That’s why I headed to Tesco to check out the Capri Sun Fruit Crush range. They were super easy to find on the Squash aisle, and I was pleasantly surprised by their affordability—currently on sale for just £1.32 for three pouches! The Capri Sun Fruit Crush comes in three delicious flavors: Apple and Pear, Tropical, and Apple and Blackcurrant. We decided to try them all to see which one the kids would prefer.

Each Capri Sun Fruit Crush pouch is made with 75% fruit juice and 25% spring water, giving it a natural, refreshing taste that really quenched the kids' thirst. Plus, each pouch counts as one of their five-a-day servings, which is a big plus when you’re aiming for a balanced diet. I personally loved the Tropical flavor—it reminded me of summer and would be a great way to bring a touch of sunshine to any lunchbox.

But it was the Apple and Blackcurrant flavor that stole the show with the kids. They absolutely adored it, which didn’t surprise me since it’s their favorite juice flavor. It’s always nice when there’s a unanimous decision!

Healthy Lunch Ideas

This summer, I’ve had a blast creating fun, themed lunches for the twins to help them get excited about starting school. One of their favorites was a “sun”-themed lunch, where we used a cookie cutter to turn cheese on toast into a sun shape, surrounded by alternating slices of cheese and melon. It looked vibrant and cheerful, and paired beautifully with the Tropical Capri Sun Fruit Crush. It was such a hit that we might just keep this theme going into the school year!

For another creative option, I put together a “present-themed” lunch for the first week of school. This involved wrapping small tuna and sweetcorn sandwiches in cheese strings to look like gift parcels. Accompanied by some grapes and a mini cupcake for dessert, it felt like a special occasion even on a regular school day. It’s also a great idea if you need to celebrate a birthday in class!

Lastly, there’s the ever-popular “butterfly” themed lunch. This one is simple yet adorable—a ham and cheese sandwich cut into butterfly shapes, colorful vegetable decorations, and fruits arranged in flower patterns. The kids love it because it’s both tasty and visually appealing. Plus, it’s an easy way to make mealtime fun without too much effort.

All in all, I’m thrilled with how versatile and convenient the Capri Sun Fruit Crush range is. Not only do they provide a healthy drink option, but their compact size makes them ideal for lunchboxes or snacks on the go. I think I’ll be stocking up on these for the school year ahead!

Foundation Brush

A foundation brush is a makeup tool used to apply liquid or cream foundation onto the face. It typically has a flat, tapered shape with densely packed bristles that help to evenly distribute and blend the foundation onto the skin. Foundation brushes can be made from synthetic or natural bristles, and they can vary in size and shape to cater to different application techniques and preferences. Using a foundation brush can provide a smooth and flawless finish, and it allows for more control and precision compared to using fingers or sponges.
