Arnold and Oroweat Bread want to help give kids a reason to get excited about lunchtime again! They put together some fantastic lunch kits and one Lucky Mom Start Reader will get to win one. My kids aren’t quite ready to have lunch at school, I have one in only half day pre-school so we make lunch at home. We have peanut butter and jelly almost every day. My kids don’t need any excitement for lunch other than Peanut Butter and Jelly. I know that’s not the case for most kids and that kids going to school it’s even harder to get them to eat.
A Few tips I can share to get kids more interested in eating lunch:
Make it fun for them.
Let them pick out the ingredients at the grocery store.
Cut up their sandwich with a cookie cutter into a fun shape.
Let them pick out their lunch box or bag.
Give kids options, it makes them own their lunch.
Enter To Win:

vegetarian tacos are great for a kid’s lunch.
Peanut Butter, Jelly, and Honey on Whole Wheat (my son’s creation!), Fruit Cup, Cheese Stick, Apple Juice, and Pudding is almost always what my son asks for! Pretty healthy considering he’s super picky!
My daughter will really eat any sandwich if it is cut up cute! PB & J is always a winner, but she loves cuke and cream cheese “tea” sandwiches!
Peanut butter and Fluff
One thing I think is yummy is sliced cucumber with a little dab of ranch dressing.

I like to make some pb and jam sandwiches, add in a banana, carrots, yogurt, jello (make a package of regular jello into a less sweet double batch by adding a pack of gelatin), some homemade cookies, maybe some chips…

We homeschool. Anything out of the refrigerator works fine.

I think sandwiches, fruit, and yogurt make for good school lunches.

I don’t have kids that age yet but I think I would make sure to send a healthy sandwich along with a fruit and veggie. Something to cover all of the healthy food groups.

These make a great lunch “side dish”! My kids love them and we use these all the time! I also introduced my Toddler Group class to them! YUM!
