Lunch Box Letters: Writing Notes of Love and Encouragement to Your Children Paperback – Box set, June 15, 2007

We've ordered this book twice, and these are the pros and cons we've found:PROS1) Each sheet has a headline, like "You're a Special Kid" or "Miss You", so you can specialize your note to your child.2) Each sheet comes with a riddle or joke printed on the bottom. My daughter and I would laugh at these all the time and I found her often retelling them to others!3) it has a lot of space to write my your own note, unlike just about every book out there like this (at least that I found).CONS1) It has way too many notes for special occasions (i.e. several "Happy birthday!"). My daughter only has one birthday, we don't need 5 letters to celebrate that.2) It does not contain enough sheets for the entire year. My daughter looked forward to getting a note every day from me, but we typically ran out mid-way through the school year, or just use one of the several "happy birthday" or "happy halloween" sheets and cross out the heading.Despite the negatives, we would still definitely order this book again. It is the ONLY one out there that we found that allows you so much space to write a unique, love-filled note to your child on very cute paper and truly make your child's day special by letting them know you're always thinking about them.

Seller Review:First I would like to thank the seller for being so professional and informative!!!I got an email from amazon asking me to write a comment - I thought it was about the PRODUCT and I didn't realize i was leaving a comment for the seller. Either or I briefly mentioned that the book had one page ripped out before getting the book. However since I love the book and the price of the book was so CHEAP I thought oh well....Turns out the seller sent me an email ASAP saying how sorry they were as they didn't realize it was missing a page. Processed a refund (never even asked for one - as like I said I love the book regardless) and then explained what my review did and how much they care...There should be more companies/people like them! Great customer service!Product Review:Personally I love this book. I always have great ideas and but often find myself not knowing what to say. With all the encouragement and reference points in this book made is so easy for me to write a cute creative note for my children. My daughter this morning told me how much she loved my note and how "cool" she felt to have a mommy write a cool poem. LOL --- I stole it from the book!!!! :) Either or I love this book! Just another great way to remind my children how much I love them and keep the communication going!!!

I was apprehensive about sending notes in my 9 year old son's lunch. I was afraid it might embarrass him or get him teased. At first, he didn't say very much about them. So, after a bit, I stopped sending them thinking that maybe he didn't want to hurt my feelings. That day he asked why I hadn't sent a note. He said he missed it. :-) Also, he confided that his friends wished their moms wrote them a note too. Now I try to send a note at least 3 days a week. I love this little book. It has sweet ideas -- and though the pages are a little hard to rip out at first, they do just fine. Very fine way to connect with a very important person in your life in a busy world.

The first forty-three pages of Lunch Box Letters provide a guide and sample letters to help parents communicate with their children, "even grown children." The idea is simple, yet most of us do not think to add a quick "I love you" note that will be discovered later in the day, much to the delight of the recipient.As the book says, "Written notes provide a complement to all the hugs and kisses your provide."The next 75 pages are colorful papers with headers and graphics for writing the notes. These can be tucked inside a lunch box, briefcase, purse, or whatever. There are several birthday, Halloween, and Valentine pages for multiple recipients. As you tear out the pages the book will begin falling apart, but the confidence of the ones who get the notes will grow.For the information, ideas, and colorful papers, this is well worth the cost. Who knows, it might just make your day as well. Five stars.....

Not much to say here...highly disappointing. The graphics on these are not good at all, and they're not cute or charming either. In retrospect, the simple but lovely little original poems I write on my own blank cards for lunchbox notes are way better. I hate to sound like it's a put-down, but I was super disappointed. I love the overall concept though. It's just the execution that fell flat. Had these been super cute or beautiful blank notes (or any type of note) it probably would have been 5 stars for me.

Well made screen protector with the right alignment for all on-screen features. Includes cleaning wipes and lint stickers to assist with a clean installation. Seems durable, can't wait to get my phone in to apply it!DISCLAIMER: I received this product at a discount or for free in exchange for a fair and honest review.

This book is cute, but the other reviews are correct...not enough general use pages! Almost all of them say something like 'I'm sorry', 'Happy Birthday', lots of Halloween pages, etc. I wish there had been more just blank or joke pages. Still, now I have special paper for these occasions for the future years.

My son loves finding these in his lunch box. I wish the headings were less restrictive, and more diverse or just left open. Glad for purchase.

Nice

My kids and I love this
