Lunch box is a good choice for my first-grade twin boys. The zipper is easy to use, children see the full contents with out "digging in" to retrieve items, and the critter makes it easily identifiable.
Excellent quality for my children. It can take a beating on the recess field after lunch, and I've even washed it in my washing machine! It also has a large amount of room inside for at least two drinks, a sandwich, fruit, several snacks and an icepack. We love it!
My five-year old son loves his Critter Lunch Box because it has a big scary spider on it. I love it because it is sturdy, spacious, easily cleaned, and fits nicely into his Junior Original Bookpack. I wash it in the sink with a soapy sponge, and it is like new. I am told a pet peeve of teachers is that all the lunch boxes and bookpacks look alike, so having the ability to customize is a major plus!
I bought this for my son for grade 1 school year he is going in grade 2 using the same lunch box it holds lots and I am guessing should be good for grade 3 as well.
