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.
