I was a little bummed when I couldn't get my daughter into morning preschool this year. We were in the middle of looking for a house when registration opened and we still didn't know where we would be living! By the time we closed on the house, ALL morning classes were full...
The school offers this activity called "Lunchbox Club". They go twice a week to play sports and games for 30 minutes, then have lunch. The class is mixed with morning and afternoon preschool classes; after Lunch Box the afternoon kids get walked over to their classroom! This gets me an extra hour with one less child in the house - with the other kid napping this is my get-things-done-around-the-house time!
The bonus of having afternoon preschool? I have plenty of time to make lunch in the morning!
So far we've had 3 days of Lunch Club and I've made all 3 lunches a little special...
Day 1: Owl sandwich - carrot and cream cheese frosting eyes and cheese wedge nose.
A+ Apple
Carrot sticks
Day 2: Mermaid sandwich - shape cut by hand. Ham Hair, slice of cheese for face, tail and shells. Eyes are a dot of frosting with a chocolate sprinkle. mouth is a piece of cilantro stalk.
Fish: fruit leather cut by hand
Goldfish
Blue dyed yogurt in a fish cup.
Day 3: Dolphin sandwich - turkey and cheese with frosting/sprinkle eye (affiliate link).
Sailing jello - blue jello with apple slice boat and carrot bear sailor

Happy Creating!
