Free printable lunch box notes to send kids back to school with love

We all love sending our kiddos off to school with just a little extra love. Or a few encouraging words. Or sometimes just the goofiest joke we can find.
That’s why we’ve put together these free printable lunch box notes—a dozen cute drawings with messages from sweet to silly.
Inspired? Create and share by tagging @HallmarkStores.

How to make your lunch box notes:
Easy! Just print these designs and cut them out.
We suggest printing a few pages and keeping a little stack on hand.
We love these notes for special days. Like the first day of school, test day or Monday. (Do kids feel the same way about Mondays?)

HINT: You don’t have to send one of these little notes in a lunch box or bag. You can stick one in a backpack or tuck it in a pocket or slip it in a book.
We hope these help you make getting ready to send your kiddos off to school a little easier.
