Wintry Kids Lunch: “Hot Cocoa” Sandwich

Oh, the joys of hot cocoa in the winter — the steaming cup of chocolatey goodness, especially with little marshmallows! In keeping with the season, I made this super simple “hot cocoa” sandwich. I originally made it without the Fruit Roll-Ups as decoration, but when I showed it to my nephews, they said: “Ooooo, decorate the cup!”  So I did, but it’s completely optional. Decorate it as silly as you want, or leave it plain.

Fun New Year’s Kids Lunch: Baby Dragon Sandwich

The new year is upon us. According to the Chinese calendar, 2012 is the Year of the Dragon, which represents success and happiness. Now, of course the Chinese new year doesn’t begin until the middle of January, but there’s no reason not to celebrate now with this adorable New Year’s baby dragon sandwich. My girls aren’t exactly fans of dragons, but even they couldn’t resist this little guy!

Fun Kids Lunch: Snowman Sandwich

Yippee! Winter’s almost here, and this snowman will bring some excitement to your kids lunch. I love snow—donning mittens, building a snowman, then coming inside for hot cocoa and a snack. We don’t have snow here in the south yet, so for now, my kids and I are contenting ourselves with this yummy snowman sandwich.

FOOTBALL SNACK: PB&J FOOTBALL HELMET

Football. Besides turkey, it’s what men think about when you mention Thanksgiving. My husband is no exception. I needed some inspiration this week, so I asked him what he thought I should make in relation to Thanksgiving. He told me either a football or a football helmet. Why didn’t I think of that? Oh yeah, because I’m a woman with three daughters — football isn’t even on my radar! I scoured through pictures of helmets and came up with this snacky replica. So, in honor of my husband and all of you Thanksgiving football families out there, this one’s for you!

Kids Fall Lunch:  Falling Leaves Sandwich

It’s officially FALL!!!!!

I’m so excited, because it’s my fave season!!!
{Even though it’s still 85° where I live, which is totally wrong.}

The leaves have yet to change colors, but I couldn’t help myself  in making a fun fall Nummie!!

The trees always show the first signs of fall.
Oh, how I adore all the pretty leaves changing color.

I wanted to come up with a new creative way to make colored leaves. While brain storming, my 7yo dropped her cute little pumpkin on the living room floor.  It’s not even Oct and my kids are already smashing pumpkins!! Let nothing go to waste…ROAST THE SEEDS!!!  I was elbow deep into the slimy pumpkin digging out the precious little seeds when it hit me:  DYE THE PUMPKIN SEEDS.  So, that’s what I did!  Added a bit of food coloring to them, and voila!!
We have pretty leaves!!!
They are so festive…not to mention yummy!!

{Click below for the complete recipe.}


~ Bread ~ Cheese ~ Pumpkin Seeds ~

Oh happy day when the leaves start falling…
I hope to see leaves changing soon!!!

HAPPY FALL!!!!
