hiiiii it is awsome to bring lunchPosted by - Tina on Apr. 20, 2013
If the children take their lunches, they get to sit down and begin eating right away. The children that must go through the lunch line do not get as much time to eat. Since they already only have 20 to 30 minutes, I wouldn't want them to rush to cram the food down. It's not safe, and not good for digestion.
