A packed lunch is when you bring your own food from home to school, work, or wherever you're going! Your grown-up would help you choose what to pack, like a sandwich, some fruit, and maybe a cookie or two. You put everything into a lunchbox or a paper bag so it's easy to carry. Then, when it's time to eat, you can open up your lunchbox and enjoy your yummy meal! Packed lunches are great because they can be healthier and cheaper than buying food from a store or restaurant, plus you get to choose exactly what you want to eat!
