Back to school time is nearly here and soon we will be faced with the dreaded “oh my gosh what will I send the kids for lunch?” problem. Or maybe your kids are easy to please when it comes to lunches? If you’re looking for more Kid Friendly School Lunch Ideas to add to your arsenal, you’ve come to the right place!
When my daughter was little, we seemed to go through phases when it came to school lunches. There would be the times where a simple tuna sandwich with an apple and cucumber slices would be just fine. Then, the picky (bored maybe?) eater would show up and I’d have to get much more creative about it.
Of course, kids are active and need that food as fuel to get them through the school day and keep their brains firing on all cylinders. My daughter has hypoglycemia and skipping meals is not an option. So, it was even more important for me to find simple ideas that had kid appeal!

Raising grandsons I am always in the market for new ideas. The 6 year old just loves bananas so you can be sure I am going to try your sushi roll. I just reading all your great ideas. Do miss seeing you on a craft channel though.
