Kids Bento Box Lunch Ideas

It’s that time in the school year where I am running out of ideas for the kid’s lunches. A lot of foods that they eat at home, they will not eat if I pack it for school! So it kinda leaves me running out of ideas. Along with the bento boxes, I also pack extra snacks. Just in case. No one wants a hangry child!
Here are a few of my last bento box creations. Very simple.

Bento Box 1
- PB&J (shaped like a gingerbread man because my daughter is obsessed with them and I am hoping it will tempt her to eat the sandwich because she really doesn’t eat sandwiches but we always keep trying!)
- sliced apples
- pretzel sticks
- Paw Patrol graham crackers
- gummy rings

Bento Box 2
- grilled cheese (my son does eat them at home but doesn’t always eat them when I pack them)
- marshmallows (his absolute favorite snack these days)
- carrot chips
- fruit snacks
- seaweed (his newest new food which he was stealing out of his sister’s hands one day)

Bento Box 3
- rice balls
- blueberries
- cookies
- celery sticks
- mini m&m’s
- popcorn and seaweed (this lunch was for my girl so I packed extra)

Bento Box 4
- red velvet cake (because sometimes you just need dessert for lunch and yes I cut off the frosting because my boy does not like it lol cake only!)
- seaweed
- chex mix
- sliced apples
- mini m&m’s

Bento Box 5
- turkey meatballs
- string beans
- blueberries
- cucumbers
- mini m&m’s (I was filling that little circle with chocolate chips for my daughter for a few weeks but then both of my kids got into a mini m&m kick and its the perfect spot for it!)
Hope you can use some of these ideas! Mix and match to make it your own!
I can’t believe how close we are to the 100th day of school. Time to get started on the kids shirts! Here are a few ideas to get you started. 100 Days of School Ideas
