Do not forget the imagination when you prepare your kid’s lunch. Creating different types of lunch, which are also very nutritious and palatable for small, can be very simple if you consider some ingredients in weekly basis and have on hand to prepare the lunch hour. The base ingredients can be tuna, bread, cucumbers, carrots, jicama, ham or vegetarian sausage, lemon and so on.

Remember that if you get used to feeding refined things to your children at home (with too much salt or sugar) will be promoting their taste for junk foods like chips and candy, which contain excessive amounts of seasonings and sugars attracting refined to the palate of the child. So do not be surprised that if he or she changes the lunch for some chips from the shop. The palate is something that can be educated from an early age, so if you maintain a good diet at home, and give it in a fun way, the kids will enjoy much more.

    Preparing kids lunch is so tedious sometimes you just find yourself lost without new ideas to change a little the variety and then you have to ask ?Is this really healthy for my child??, the most probable thing is that it isn?t as healthy as you expect, so having these recipes in handy is something very very useful.

    maybe you haven’t realized that once the kids eat, the food will be cold for sure, so I opt of fresh and raw food instead…

    Thanks so much for the article, I just loved reading it! As I mentioned in another post, I don’t have kids of my own right now, but I could forsee this happening within the next 5-10 years. I”m already starting to make some of the mental changes for parenthood.
