No Impact Child

The Yubo Lunchbox System

Brown paper bags, sandwich wrap, plastic baggies…all told, the average lunch amounts to 67 pounds of waste per child per school year. That’s some carbon footprint for a kid who is maybe 40 pounds soaking wet!

In the spirit of the zero impact movement, we give you the Yubo Lunchbox System.

With their dishwasher-safe, reusable containers, these lunchboxes are sure to allay any guilt you may have about what your dependence on disposable products is doing to the poor, unsuspecting environment. And thanks to super cool features like the custom-built ice pack and changeable, lunchtime-boredom-busting face plates, the Yubo has one more added benefit – turning your tyke into the hit of the cafeteria.

Available at getyubo.com. Mamaista readers can get 10 percent off their entire Yubo order when they enter code “mama10” at checkout before September 30.
