It seems like it was just yesterday that school was starting and I was talking about Fabkins awesome cloth napkins designed for kids lunches.  My son has used his sports Fabkins in his lunch for 4 months now and loves them.  They wash well and since his are dark blue they don’t stain either.  We have another brand of cloth napkins that are white and they are already dirty looking (but that’s a boy thing…messy!). 

Well Fabkins has expanded their line to include a cute holiday set.  The one’s we received included a gingerbread man and a Christmas tree. They also a snowman and a stocking.  For a limited time you can purchase these holiday Fabkins for $7.95 for a set of 2. 

At 13″ x 13″ they are perfect size to use as a wrapping paper for your child’s small gifts.  They would be perfect in their stocking or as a teachers gift.

Giveaway Alert!  Litter Free Lunches is giving TWO lucky readers their very own set (of 5) of reusable cloth napkins.  (Valued at $19.99 each)  ECO-ngratulations to Tamara and Bonggamom!  You are winners!

Who can tell me what material makes up the most of our trash each day?  PAPER!  One of the easiest ways to reduce our paper waste is by switching to reusable napkins, especially in our children’s lunches.  It is estimated that if a family of 4 replaces paper napkins with cloth napkins that they can save over $70 a year AND reduce their paper waste by 40 pounds.

Litter Free Lunch is a company that was founded by a pair of moms in Illinois.  The offer a full line of napkins, including their newest, an organic cotton set.  Each set of napkins is made in the USA.  They are made of 100% cotton (or organic cotton) and measure 12″ X 12″ in size.  Each individual napkin has a sewn-in label with space for you to write your child’s name.  The napkins are machine washable.  In addition to cloth napkins, Litter Free Lunch also sells recycled lunch bags, stainless steel food containers, and water bottles.

Big B now has a wide variety of cloth napkins to use both at home and at school.  Today I asked him if he used his napkin and he said, “No!”  Upon inspection I could tell that he was acting like a normal first grader and that he actually did use it.  He’s a boy and doesn’t usually get too excited about these things but hopefully his friends will take notice and ask their moms for their own cloth napkins.  Litter Free Lunch napkins are great quality and have some really cute embroidered designs. 

An extra bonus is that Litter Free Lunch also offers fundraising options for your school.  You can download their fundraising packet from their website and present it to your child’s school. 

Buy It!  For my readers Litter Free Lunch is offereing Free Shipping from Sept. 1-Sept. 8th.  No coupon code is needed! Sets of napkins start at $19.99 each.
