A Child's Food...
A photo gallery of our daily Bento lunches, Bon Appetite!
Prep Time: +/- 10 ~ 15 Mins
We always have Zozie see his Bento of the Day.
He's in charge of assembly & packing into his lunch bag.
This way, he gets a "preview" and feel like he helped create it!
So far, he actually brings home an empty Bento box each day, so I guess he loves eating it too!
Hope you have as much fun as we have, Enjoy!
