After School Snacks

As I've mentioned before, my kids are involved in after-school activities, ranging from running, soccer, youth group, and Spanish club (soon to begin), plus my oldest goes to a couple other clubs. They need something to eat between school and activity time, so I pack them little snack kits some of those days.

Even if your kids (or you, or significant other) just come straight home, it's handy to have a snack ready to go.

Here's Bayberry's snack for today.

In a Tupperware sandwich holder, I made a frame out of grapes and a peanut butter tortilla. Strawberry eyes, a grape nose, and orange mouth. Simple, small, and cute.

Snack Bento for Bayberry

Today marks the start of the cross country season at Bayberry's school, so I'm making her an extra mini-meal each day that she can eat quickly between school and practice. Here's today's snack bento:

Hard-boiled egg in bunny shape (colored with food color markers) resting on a piece of uncured black forest ham. Strawberries and Crenshaw melon cutouts and Brownie Bits round out the snack.

This is in the new snack box I chose. I chose it for its price ($3.99!) and its features (small, easy to use, no BPA, no lead, nothing bad). It's a Sistema sandwich box. Perfect snack size for Bayberry.
