With Halloween less than 2 weeks away (!) how's about a some fun Halloween bento lunch ideas for the littles! I have to admit we started in on the Halloween bentos the minute October hit...we just love Halloween over here! On a side note, I just bought fabric for the littles Halloween costumes the other day. Here's hoping Oliver will take some good naps for momma so I can get them done in time!

Lunch 1: Homemade applesauce, blackberries, baby carrots, orange and black Halloween tortilla chips and salsa (chips from Target!), and blueberry jam sandwiches cut out like little ghosts.

Lunch 2: Coconut flakes and dried blueberries, homemade applesauce, grapes, chopped cucumbers, pumpkin-shaped ham sandwich, pumpkin-shaped cheese slices, and pumpkin-shaped pretzels (from World Market).

Lunch 3: Baby carrots and ranch dressing, grapes, pumpkin-shaped cheese, pumpkin-shaped pretzels, pumpkin-shaped jelly sandwich with little bat-shaped pretzels, and a couple of those candy-corn type pumpkins for dessert.

Bento Lunch Ideas: Week 6

More bento lunch goodness for y'all, who's excited! So last night we picked up Penny's cheerleading uniform (!!!) She will be a cheerleader for winter basketball, hehe. The uniform is so cute and true to Penny-form she had to try it on as soon as we came home and immediately started doing cheers with her poms, she cracks me up! Noah will also be playing winter basketball and we just found out one of his old buddies will be on his team so it seems like the cold winter months are already looking brighter for us which is always helpful when it starts getting dark at 5, yikes!

Okay, on to the lunches!

Lunch 1: Paleo chocolate pudding, homemade applesauce with cinnamon, cucumbers, apple slice, almond butter and jelly mustache sandwiches.

Lunch 2: Blueberry jam flower and heart-shaped sandwiches, goldfish, homemade fruit roll-up, grapes, blueberries.
