What's black & white, black & white, black & white?

A panda bear rolling down a hill :)  Heheh, cute. And I love it when I have bento accessories that go with the jokes, riddles, & facts on our Lunchbox Love notes. Bella loves pandas too, so she loved this lunch:

Her EasyLunchbox is packed with turkey & cheddar wraps secured with panda picks, Craisins in a mini dipper, grapes in a flower cup, & celery with a little panda sauce container filled with peanut butter for dipping. Oh, and the last of the pumpkin pie Oreos :)

Bento Kid : Mia Bella Made Lunches

In consideration of my being sick with a cold, my Bella made her own lunch yesterday & today. Such a sweet kid. She packs a pretty sweet lunch too :)

Yesterday, Sea Creatures:

Today, Panda Party!

Both EasyLunchboxes contain a whole grain energy bar, whole grain Fig Newtons, spiced almonds in EasyLunchboxes Mini Dippers, grape tomatoes, & cantaloupe. She chose all the ingredients & accessories herself,  I only took the photos. Fruit, veggie, protein & grain, well done my girlie!

Panda Pick Love!

I love having bento accessories for those mornings when I'm rushed or just not feeling up to doing much. This morning I woke up feeling dreadful and was going to tell the sproutlets to have school lunch, but none of today's choices appealed to Bella.  No worries, with the help of a handful of bento picks and silicone cups, I made this cute & colourful lunch in minutes.

She has a Foldit flatbread sandwich made with leftover chicken & cheddar cheese slices, a fruit leather rollup cut in half to fit the EasyLunchbox, baby carrots & a radish, and sunburst tomatoes, decorated with panda bento picks. Bella loves pandas. A little panda sauce container holds a Hershey's Kiss.

Linking up to the 150th week of 

What's For Lunch Wednesday!

Congratulations on this milestone Shannon!

Lunchbox Love & Learn :)

We love our Lunchbox Love note cards; they're an easy way to add some extra love to the sproutlets' lunches. And a little learning fun too! All the notes have a sentiment side, but on the flip side, some have jokes, and some have tidbits of trivia. We especially love the ones with animal facts ♥

I made my girls bentos to match the themes of their Lunchbox Love :)

Bella's panda bento was inspired by the lunch Jenn of Bento for Kidlet packed for her Kidlet today - I just love the colourful pasta she made! We had some leftover marinara sauce so I put that in a Thermos and cooked up some leafy veggie pasta for Bella to pour it over. She also has cucumbers, almonds (in the Mini Dipper), apples with a teeny bottle of cinnamon & sugar to sprinkle, and cherry & sunburst tomatoes. 

Sprout has a starfish bento with cheddar cheese stars, little starfish peanut butter sandwiches, starfish cheese crackers, & apple wedges.

Birdie's turtle bento has "turtle egg" peanut butter sandwiches, apple bites, yogurt with sea turtle sugar sprinkles, and a cup of plums bites & red grapes.
