I like to put carrots and hummus in lunch for a little healthy snacks.

Sometimes I like to imprint short messages on the tops of sandwiches using small cookie cutter letters. Other times I’ll use larger cookie cutters to cut the sandwiches into fun shapes. My daughter’s favorite is the butterfly sandwich cookie cutter we found at Target’s Dollar Spot a few weeks ago. It cuts the crust off, halves the sandwich, and there’s a pretty butterfly leftover! I usually include a carrot, piece of celery, raisins, and small container of peanut butter or honey in the lunch box so she can re-create the butterfly at lunch before she eats it.

Me and my son make most of his lunch together. I like to get his imput on what he feels like having instead of “you will eat this today”. I think it is important for them not only to eat good, but be able to make good choices when faced with a decision. Yes I will send in a cookie for him to eat but he will also get the good for you snacks to go with it. I am still looking for more ideas as my son has SID (sensory integration dysfunction) and cannot eat certain foods. I also like to leave a handwritten note on the inside of the bag, something uplifting. Sometimes they make him smile and might just help if he is having a bad day. Just my personal touch to a meal away from home.

My daughter loves hummus and I add pita chips, and sliced veggies to her lunch. She also loves cutting her own sandwich with a fun shaped cookie cutter, she will eat anything on a sandwich that she cut herself with her favorite cookie cutter.

I always liked to cut the sandwiches into fun shapes with my cookie cutters. I keep it healthy with cut up veggies and fruits.

I use cookie cutters to make cute sandwiches…my boys loved them. They think they’re getting too big for that now. :-(
Also my kids loved bananas wrapped in tortillas with Peanut Butter

I love getting creative with little one’s lunches. I like to use cookie cutters to make different shapes out of sandwiches. And making happy faces out of pieces of bell pepper and olives!

My wife makes the kids lunches with little containers of yougurt that they can dip fruit in. They seem to like that.

I have boys so when I saw that Walmart has a dinosaur cutter for their sandwiches, it was perfect. I also give my little one teddy grahams to dip in his applesauce :)

They make fun stampers for sandwich bread that can put a smiley face on a PB&J…
