Weaving a little fun into lunch. . .


A little fun goes a very long way when it comes to getting people of a certain height to actually eat something.
My kids aren't picky, just very unmotivated eaters. Adding a little "fancy" to their meals makes them disappear much faster and
helps me stay sane. No begging, pleading or threats of "no dessert" necessary.

Combo Post ~ Three Lunches

Lunch 65


Lunch: Pumpkin pancakes and cantaloupe. Small bottle of maple syrup. Cheese stick. 
Snacks: Granola bar, mixed dry cereal.
Drinks: Juice from home, chocolate milk from school

This particular breakfast for lunch was an attempt to get this kid to eat some food! She has been bringing home more than she eats. I even precut the pancakes to make it really easy. It worked! Almost all the food was gone. Two chunks of melon and 1/3 of the cheese stick were all that was left after school. 


Lunch 66


Lunch: Whole wheat and cream cheese hearts. Two prunes. Apple, grapes and carrot sticks.
Snacks: Pumpkin muffin, granola bar
Drinks: Iced tea and chocolate milk



Lunch at Home. . .



Grilled cheese strips, kiwi and cucumber slices. Green pepper and green grapes. Star fruit slices. Ketchup in the center of one plate.

It never fails to amaze me, when the food is put in a pattern, it vanishes much faster. It doesn't need to be cute. It just needs to be interesting.
