Cute Lunch - Animal Punches

So I was telling a friend at work about my new attempts at cute lunches for Robbie and she told me she had something he would like.  The next day she brought me a dinosaur sandwich punch.  It is really amazing in that it punches the sandwich and has very little waste besides the crust.  Combined with some candy eyeballs I had left from Robbie's birthday cupcakes, we have a new cute lunch!  I've made these a couple of times now, but here is one we did one Saturday afternoon. 

Dino PBJ, 1/2 banana slices, a few cheetos, a few sweet petite pickles, and 3 baby oreos for dessert.

The dinos were such a big hit, that Sam came home from Walmart the other day with a few more punches - an elephant and a penguin.

Why, yes, elephants ARE adorable sandwiches.

Elephants, black grapes, sweet pickles again, and some chocolate & cinnamon teddy grahams for dessert... also some string cheese & juice for afternoon snack, and yogurt and pop-tart for breakfast.


Penguin PBJ, water drop American cheese punches, deli turkey, a goldfish cracker mix with a few pecans, and two baby oreos for dessert.  Yogurt & pop-tart for breakfast.  Some pears for afternoon snack.

We used to send veggies for lunch every day, but we've found that he doesn't eat them very well at school. We make sure he gets veggies each night at dinner and he seems to gobble them up at home.  We usually don't send PBJ more than once or twice a week either... but they have been a popular request from Rob since we've had the punches.  I really like our Sassy lunch containers for these kinds of lunches.

Cute lunches!  To be continued!
