For small children especially, bento lunches can be quite decorative. Vegetables and sandwiches cut into shapes and rice balls with smiley faces, make children take more notice of their food and show the love and care that the mother put into preparing the meal.
Making big batches of small things, like mini muffins, and freezing them for future use, makes nice lunches a much less time consuming activity.
Not all of Blaze's lunches have become fancy bento style productions, but here are pictures of some of my favorites so far:
The first day of school bento:
Breakfast for lunch:
Fall bento lunches:
Pirate themed bento lunches:
I have fun doing these, so I'm sure there will be more to come.
