Lunchboxes

[Pink1981]

I am feeling very uninspired at the moment and Sophie has had pretty much the same lunch everyday since september

She has a ham or dairylea sandwich or roll, some cucumber, grapes and carrot. A Frube, a fruit shoot and sometimes crips or cheddars

Was just wondering what do you put in your childrens lunchboxes

My daughter is a fussy monkey so she either has

ham or chicken sandwhich or wrap or sausage roll
strawberries, grapes, melon or 2 small satsumas
popcorn (she doesnt like crisps) or breadsticks and raisins
petite filous fromage frais
a biscuit or a cake as a treat
capri sun fruit juice

DD1 usually has

-A ham salad, tuna and cucumber sandwich, pitta breads with fillings or some kind of pasta, e.g tuna, mayo and cucumber, very occasionally cold pizza.
- Fruit
- Carrot sticks/cucumber sticks
- Choobes (the yogurt stuff)

And very occasionally she will have a cake, the school ask you not to put in any chocolate, crisps, cakes etc so she usually only has this once every 6 weeks or so.

When DD2 goes to school next year I will add cubes of cheese in hers too, DD1 doesn't like cheese though.

For my son he usually just wants a sandwich. Jam or Cheese spread. I add 2 juices, one for each break, a fruit (apple, cucumber, oranges, and strawberries are his favs) and then a snack (fruit snack or crackers or something).

Sometimes I make sandwich "wraps", ham and cheese in a tortilla with some honey mustard. Sometimes tuna, sometimes tuna in a pita. He also loves cheese and crackers and ham.

DS has ravioli, sandwich, or lunch able and every Friday has pizza.
Water
Always has 2-3 fruit ( apple, orange, banana, kiwi, grapes, blueberries,strawberries raspberries...)
Always has 1-2 veggie ( carrot, broccoli, cucumber, cauliflower,green pepper, celery...)
Always a yogurt.
Then I alternate between cheese string, raisins, granola bar, cheese and cracker. (always 2 of theses things)

 

[tallybee]

Ham or cheese sandwich with salad on, or a wrap

Baby bels or cheese strings

Carton of juice

Any piece of fruit, if it's grapes or similar they go in a little tub

Little tub of pitted olives

Yogurt/fromage frais

Cereal bar (nutri grain or similar)

Little boxes of raisins

Little tub of cherry tomatoes

Hard boiled egg

Not all of the above in one lunch obviously I have given them a pasta salad in a tub before, in place of a sandwich. It's normally a sandwich they get though.
