Back to school is right around the corner. I don’t know about your kids, but mine always need some extra motivation to get back into school mode. Making fun lunches during the first week of school gives kids something to look forward to during the school day. These creations put a new twist on the average school brown bag lunch. Plus, they’ll put a smile on their face!
It’s not hard to create a lunch based on a theme. Colors or letters of the alphabet are easy themes to get you started. Cookie cutters are a great way to introduce animals or shapes into your creations. Creating a lunch based on a character or movie can be a challenge. I’ve found using toothpicks or printables is an easy way to carry out a complicated theme. No matter what your kids are into, you’ll be sure to find some inspiration in the lunches below. Here are some great ideas for themed lunches to make your kids for back to school.
