Children can really benefit nutritionally from a home pre-packed lunch, but only if they eat what's inside. Below are some tips on how to make lunches more exciting and healthy for your child this year.
1. Cut cheese into triangles, circles or sticks.
2. Use a cookie cutter on sandwiches to make shapes.
3. For a change, substitute soup or salad for a sandwich.
4. Layer meats, cheeses, fruits and vegetables on a toothpick as a kabob.
5. Substitute sodas with pure fruit juice, milk or bottled water.
6. Keep soft items in containers to avoid a squashed lunch.
