What have you been putting in your children’s lunches?

I usually try to do something I know they will eat like a croissant, waffle, bagel, muffin, or crackers;

something I hope they will eat but don't, like celery or cucumber:

And snacks ( apple slices, cookies, granola bars, grapes, berries, etc).

What are some lunches you make?

I did kielbasa and cheese as a snack today. It's better than sweets but I doubt they will eat it.

My kid also says they don't have enough time to eat their food. I have a feeling my kid spends lunch and snack breaks talking and playing instead of eating though.

    Kielbasa and cheese sounds filling if they’ll eat it. It’s so difficult to get a good balance of fast/healthy/will get eaten/affordable.

    At my kid’s school they do a “share table” so if other kids don’t eat an item from lunch, they can put it in the share table. There’s always apples, oranges, sometimes crackers. It’s relieving to know there’s something available for a snack if whatever I sent struck out.
