Just give your child a delicious hot tea with cookies for school, and you won't have to worry about them being hungry all day. Especially if there are 7-8 lessons at school, after-school clubs await, and there's simply no time to run home for lunch.
According to numerous surveys among parents, when asked if their child brings food to school, over 55% of respondents answer "yes." The topic is relevant, so today we will analyze which thermos is best suited for a schoolchild.
Technical Characteristics
Flask Material. Which thermos is better: with a glass flask or with stainless steel? Disputes among users do not subside. All Kite thermoses and thermo mugs are made of AISI 304 steel. Its chemical composition and properties make it most suitable for use in the food industry. The material is safe and recommended for children's use.
Another reason why it is recommended to opt for a steel flask is safety. Children are agile and often mischievous. They throw things on the floor along with their backpack, so there is always a risk that the glass in the flask will crack.
Temperature Regime. A quality thermos keeps boiling water hot for 12 hours. Such models are produced for travelers. They cost like a spaceship - very expensive. For school, keeping heat and cold for 6 hours is considered sufficient. Kite children's thermoses and thermo mugs fully comply with this requirement. Even after 7 lessons, the tea will be hot and delicious.
Size. The most popular "adult" thermos sizes are 1-liter. For school, an optimal volume is 350-400 ml. This is enough for a snack and doesn't overload an already heavy backpack.
Drinks. A thermos is suitable not only for tea but also for other drinks: water, juice, compote, fruit drink. You can store both hot and cold liquids.
Pleasant Details. Each thermos for a schoolchild is equipped with a lid-cup. It does not heat up from hot contents and protects children's delicate hands from burns. There are models equipped with a carabiner. They are convenient to attach to a backpack or to a belt during walks.
How to care for a thermos
It is highly not recommended to leave the thermos unwashed, even if it contained tea without sugar. After some time, a dense plaque forms on the walls of the flask, which will absorb odors. And it doesn't look aesthetically pleasing. A thermos for a schoolchild is simply washed with warm water with dishwashing detergent and a brush with soft bristles.
And finally, we will share a little trick on how to keep the thermos warm for as long as possible. First, pour boiling water inside, pour it out, and then pour in the prepared drink.
