Lunch Punch - Beating the Battle of the Lunchbox

What if your child's sandwiches were ‘too cool not to eat...’

Getting children to eat can be an uphill battle at the best of times, the phrase ‘I don’t like that...’ or ‘I don’t want that...’ are all too familiar to parents of toddlers and preschoolers.

What do you do when your child won't eat the content of their lunch box? Today many parents are facing this issue, and it's a constant struggle to keep thinking up of new ideas to make their child's lunch boxes appealing as well as healthy.

Founders of Coolthings Australia, Peter and Anne-Maree Harback, are parents of 2 young children and are all too familiar with this battle. Mr Harback said “I know first hand the battle that parents face with this issue, and we’re all looking for new and creative ideas the help our kids.”

They have recently found a cool new invention that is paving a way for parents with fussy eaters - it’s called The Lunch Punch. Mr Harback said “When we first tried The Lunch Punch we knew we had something special, the fact that it was designed by an Aussie mum to solve this common problem makes it a hit in my book."

The Lunch Punch is a brand new product invented by an Aussie Mum living in Melbourne with 3 young kids, who recognised the need to supply her 3 young boys with exciting, fun and healthy lunches.

Here’s a comment from a mother who has recently tried the Lunch Punch -

I highly recommend the Lunch Punch to any family with young children.

My 3 year old son, who usually struggles to eat one sandwich (and usually pulls out any filling before eating it), devoured his first lunch punch-ed sandwich and promptly asked me for a second.

And my 7 year old daughter's Grade 2 classmates all want to help her put her sandwich together each day. And as soon as the kids saw her sandwich they asked "how does your Mum do that"! She actually 'punched' her own sandwich today - she loves it.

What a great invention.

~ Happy Mum

So what is the Lunch Punch?

The Lunch Punch is a sandwich cutter that turns ordinary, everyday, same-old, boring sandwiches into fun, cool, exciting shapes and puzzle pieces. You can even lay out your cut-out sandwiches on a plate in a Puzzle for unique kid's party food!

The Lunch Punch is a handy resource for parents, which is simple to use; making sandwiches something that your kids can prepare for themselves and is dishwasher safe. Visit http://www.coolthings.com.au/lunch-punch-p-1020.html to see how innovative this product really is.

The Lunch Punch Cutters are made of fully ABS FDA certified food grade plastic, which means there are no nasty toxins and they are a rigid plastic making them basically indestructible.

The Lunch Punch will make your child's sandwiches ‘too cool not to eat...’ and change the way you look at sandwiches forever.
