A Cut Above: Swap Square Sarnies for Fun Shapes

Make lunchtime fun by using biscuit cutters to create heart, star, dinosaur, and rocket ship-shaped sandwiches. You can also use smaller cookie cutters on slices of cucumber and carrot for a healthy snack. Get more inspiration on Instagram at instagram.com/food.kids.love.

Party Time: Transform Your Dining Table

Turn lunch into a party by using colorful paper plates, cups, and napkins. You can also set up activities like coloring-in stations to keep the kids entertained while they eat.

Picnic Perfect: Indoor Picnics for Rainy Days

Create a cozy indoor picnic by laying down a blanket and cushions. Pack finger foods in snazzy storage tubs or make individual lunchboxes for a proper picnic experience.

Pizza Parlour: Let the Little Chefs Work Their Magic

Transform your kitchen into a mini pizza parlour and let the kids craft their own masterpieces. Set up food stations for the base, sauce, and toppings. Use pitta bread as a budget-friendly pizza crust.

Taco Table: Make Lunch a Mexican Fiesta

Cover your dining table with foil or greaseproof paper and assemble a DIY taco spread. Fill the centre with meat and surround it with shredded lettuce, grated cheese, and crunchy tortilla chips. The whole family can pick and choose their toppings and enjoy the messiness of it all.
