BUGS!

My daughter's preschool class has a bug theme this week.  In honor of that, I made some large ants.  They are made with three tomatoes on a toothpick, celery eyes and legs.  I tried antenaes but I couldn't get anything to stick to the tomatoes.  The legs are just loose, so I am sure they will rattle around by lunch time, but my daughter actually wanted it to get mixed up so that "the ant legs would be everywhere".  ok.   Made my job easier!

Also added are 'ants on a log' and a container of 'worms' aka, organic whole wheat noodles.  Also, applesauce with little brown things (cinnamon).

    I have to share a funny bug story. My 3 year old an I were playing the game Cootie and he kept asking where the Hannah Montana's were. I couldn't understand him for the longest time until I finally realized he was saying antennae!

    Hi Amanda! I came to your site from FFF on MBC, and I'm so glad I did! We've been adding more and more organic foods to our family (well, switching out the non-org for the organic stuff). We are trying our second year of gardening this coming summer, and I can't wait. Also, my youngest has a fructose intolerance. So, we've also been cutting out foods with sugars and other sweeteners, which really is good all around.

    I'm grabbing your button because I think green living is SO vital! Thanks again!

    Hi,

    This is so much fun for kids and parents. As I always say on my blog also" http://chitrapal.blogspot.com " that cooking is creative thing and it is all about involving family.

    Kids will love your lunch box and parents will enjoy making it with kids and they will be happy when kids will eat their vegetables and fruits which kids normally avoid in every culture.

    I will surely recommend your blog to my friends having trouble with kids about food.

    Thanks,
    Chitra
