Packed Lunch at school is both nutritionally and socially important.
 
Healthy packed lunch and snacks provide children with energy to stay active.
 
Packed lunch should provide 1/3rd of daily requirements of calories and proteins to the child.
 
Packed lunch gives your child the energy for the second half of the day and helps children concentrate and reach their full academic potential.
     
 
Parents need to educate their children that the lunch box must have something from each of the food groups to stay energetic. Here are
some healthful ideas:
 
Grains:
  Include whole-wheat breads and pastas, low fat bran muffins, or whole-wheat flour pranthas/rolls.  
Protein:
  Besan preparations (besan puras stuffed with vegetables, soya
preparations and hard-boiled eggs.
Fruits and Vegetables:
  Include sliced fresh fruit or a pack of Real fruit juice, carrot and cucumber sticks, or other veggies.
Calcium:
