Fun Food

Fun Food

One of my sweet children is a super super picky eater.  It is a struggle sometimes to get her to eat so making a school lunch was really a challenge for me.  Thus begin the fun food phase.  For over a year I have been doing fun food and fun lunches for my little kids.  I have taken pics of some of it and decided to blog it not only to share but also to remind me of some of the cute ideas when I have food brain block!!!  All of the drawing on our food is done with food markers.  All of the food pics I use I made with stickers and either toothpicks or food pics.  I use mostly cookie cutters for sandwich shapes. I often use silicon cupcake holders or even paper cupcake holders in lunches.
