Happy Easter Bunny Bento

I pulled it off - here is the 4th and final lunch! I had to make a ton of chocolate popcorn for my husbands bake sale last night and it almost didn't happen. The guilt got to me though and here are Thursdays lunches!

3 year old - Annie's bunny grahams and crackers with veggie booty down the side. Rabbit sandwich with carrot ears, fruit leather whiskers and a pretzel mouth. She's being a diva and her fruit has to be separated at the moment....
6 year old. He will for sure come home stating that it didn't look like a bunny - I'll put money on it! Same thing only with grapes and rice cakes for ears. Oh and Cheecha puffs down the side (I have a small addiction to them!)

Easter Chickie Bento Lunch

Aww, an Easter chickie lunch for my chickie! And my dude, of course.

My old brain was fried so this one was tough!

The 3 year olds:
Easter egg  (I put those natural fruit nugget things inside), strawberries, Earths Best Organic mini waffle chick with raisin eyes and a carrot nose, rice cakes.


The 6 year olds is similar - only with grapes and peach applesauce.

Happy Easter Egg Bento

This one almost didn't happen - I got a little distracted out shopping and got home late. Considered not bothering but pulled it out!

Strawberries with a flower pick, Annie's bunny crackers, a mini bunny sandwich, Easter egg sandwich and some carrots. I punched holes out of the egg sandwich then stuck a baking sprinkle in each hole (and for the bunny's nose).

See you tomorrow!

Easter Bunny Bento

My grand plan is to do an Easter bento all 4 days the kids will be in school/daycare this week so look for them! Of course my grand plans don't always pan out but I'll try my best.

It's always nice doing bentos on Sundays. It's relaxing, I do it in the afternoon, the light is good for the pictures.... When I'm doing it after work, in between dinner/bedtimes, it's a little more hectic!

I have 2 for you this week.

First the 3 year olds - she's my veggie lover and my dairy allergy.

She has: deli turkey with a bunny fork pick, a bubby made out cucumbers and carrots (hey, I'm very proud of that one - isn't he cute?!) melon with a few bunny grahams in a yellow cup and finally wheat thins with a bunny pick.


The 6 year olds. He's my sensory issues/picky guy.

He has: deli turkey with a chick and bunny picks, wheat thins with a cheese bunny, more pieces of cheese for his crackers in a side wrapper (more on that in a second), some bunny grahams and some melon with a sheep pick.


My awesome pod-mate at work brought me those side dish partion cups (the wrapper looking thing holding the extra cheese) from Vancouver. They are awesome, they fold open and you push down so there is a bottom and then you can stick things into them. Love it! I like the baran pieces for separating stuff but those are way better as there is nothing touching or seeping through at the bottom.

Well, see you tomorrow for round 2 of Easter lunches!
