I realize this thread is old, but it's worth expanding on!

I recently changed my lunch menu to almost all "cold" lunches, that I pre-make (sometimes the night before, sometimes when I have a few moments in the morning) and keep them in little tupperwares from the dollar store. I try and make then look interesting but simple to make eg. turkey sandwiches cut into triangles, each kid gets 2 triangles and i lay them out like a butterfly, carrot "body and antennae" and snap pea "grass" underneath, with a couple slices of cheese on the side. I sometime's make a veggie soup that I can keep in the in the fridge and heat it up for those who have bigger appetites... I got a lot of ideas that I made my own on google under "bento lunches" etc.

nap time is a crap shoot lol! I have a new one starting and it's messed with my routine but we are working on it!
