Spring Inspired Lunch Ideas for School
When it comes to creating the perfect school lunch for your little one, we know two things that come to mind. Healthy and fun! Spring is the ideal time of year where it is easy to combine these two elements into one yummy meal. We know your little one will love these spring-inspired lunch ideas just as much as we do!
Lunchtime Favorites
We are positively buzzing with joy over how adorable this Bee Sushi Bento spring-inspired lunch is. This preschooler-approved meal from Bento Monsters does require a little more extra effort than usual, but it is well worth it. For the complete how-to, click the link above.
This delicious avocado toast recipe is the perfect leap into spring. Your little one will love their adorably delectable frog sandwich with a California spin. While you can ultimately create whichever kind of avo toast you prefer, we suggest following the directions at the link above.
Hopping right on over to another tasty treat, we have the yummy bunny BBQ sandwich from Happy Little Bento. Your preschooler will be happy indeed once they open their lunchbox up to this cute surprise. Click the link above for the complete recipe.
These are the types of clouds we would never wish away. We love this spring-inspired lunch using challah bread and cheese to create the perfect lunchtime treat. Since challah bread is already perfectly cloud-shaped, your recipe is already halfway there. Use your slice of cheese to make a yummy yellow sun and add a smile to your cloud with a couple of blueberries and an apple slice. For the complete arrangement, just click the link above.
Singing in the Rain Bento Box Lunch
April showers bring May flowers and also delightfully delicious bento box ideas for your child’s school lunch. We love this spring-inspired lunch from Bentology and know that you will too. What we love best about this particular sandwich is that you can ultimately create any kind that your little one wants. The umbrella on top is made using two types of cheese (cheddar and provolone), while the snacks on the side can be a healthy option of your choosing. For the recommended recipe, click the link above.
Snacktime Heroes
There are so many fun ways to turn apples into fun and delicious snacktime treats. This spring-inspired snack is equal parts yummy, cute, and easy to make. All you will need for this recipe is an apple, jelly beans, marshmallow bits, and Nutella. While the marshmallows will serve as the funny bunny’s eyes and teeth, the jelly bean is the perfect shiny pink nose. We will eave it to Kitchen Fun with My 3 Sons to explain the rest.
Our favorite spring-inspired snacks are back in time for the most colorful season of the year. We love the idea of packing any type of snack and using adorably crafted clothespins for a small dose of joy. To make this snack even more fun for your little one, you can have them prepare their butterfly clothespin so that you have it as a keepsake and a snacktime accessory. For the how-to, just click the link above!
We love Kix and their simple and healthy snack time ideas. This yummy treat is easy to make and will surely put a smile on your little ones’ faces as a snack for any time of day. All that you need to create your birdie are (1) pineapple ring, Kix (of course), (1) baby carrot, (2) black currents, and pretzel sticks.
We hope you and your little one have a happy spring filled with joy and yummy treats!
