Tip For You : You can try to pair up two items from different categories to keep things balanced and delicious.
Ideas for kid's meals at school:
Be sure to
include the school's box lunch all essential nutrients including carbohydrates,
fiber, protein and a small amount of fat.
And it’s always
preferred to meet the wishes of kids in the food they like to eat and prepare
it for them in a healthy manner, and try to focus in food varieties and diversification
and provide ideas from time to time so that your kid will not get bored.
For vegetables
and fruits, which are the most important elements that kids need during the
school day, they are preferred to be small in size and easy to eat like grapes,
the cantaloupe cut into small cubes. For vegetables, small carrots or broccoli
cut into thin slices.
As for the main
food, which contains starches in particular, you can put a few noodles boiled
with tomato sauce or small pieces of pizza. As for sweets, the best choices are
cupcakes or muffins or brownies and preferably prepared at home.
For sandwiches, it
is recommended to replace white bread with whole or whole grain bread, because
it contains a higher percentage of fiber. You can prepare multiple types of
sandwiches, such as cheese sandwiches, cheese or jam with peanut butter,
chocolate butter or halva.
In addition to
meat choices of chicken breast cut in slice piece and mortadella, you can also
prepare the hamburgers at home in small size and put it in your kid’s lunch box
with Little grilled potatoes and salad.
And try to
innovate in preparing sandwiches for your kid and prepare them in different
forms, especially the forms of animals that your kid love and you can cut and
decorate them in an appropriate way to be attractive to your child.
About salad, try
to avoid preparing the classic salad and replace it with pasta or potato salad, and
do not forget the salad of fruits which perfect and healthy sweetening for
children.
Finally, put the
fresh and natural juices in small bottles that are easy to open by kids, and
you can put yogurt or milk that your toddler likes.
And try to avoid
as possible the ready foods which are a high percentage of fat and sugars and
others kind of candies.
Remember to provide a simple breakfast for your kid before going to school, in case he could not eat during the day or did not want to.
Tips and Notes:
HOW TO PACK IDEAL TODDLER lunches:
1.
Try to make lunch a mix of yummy and healthy foods and that are familiar
too.
2.
Try not to send some food that your kid has never had before.
3.
I prefer that I may not be able to send nuts.
4.
Ask for feedback on how your child ate so you know what they like (and what
they do not …).
5.
Add water and milk as needed and as preferred to these meal ideas.
6.
Pack easy-to-eat foods if lunch periods are short.
7.
Don’t worry too much if their appetite varies from one day to the next.
This is totally normal.
8.
Always cut and serve specific foods in sizes that your toddler can handle.
