We rotate marmite sammies/toasties/spaghetti/jam sammies and add crackers, fruit cup, banana, raisins, muesli bar and a biscuit. Sometimes I add in a packet of chips for him if he's been a good boy. Thomas is pretty fussy so we just stick with the same staples. Thomas LOVES egg and peanut butter but they're not allowed it in the lunches. ]]> Wed, 21 Jul 2010 19:05:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1105587&title=lunchbox#1105587 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1105298&title=lunchbox#1105298 Author: mollycat

Dani - some new things Ryan's just discovered are surimi (the imitation crab stuff) and sliced black olives. Depending on if your daycare will let you take egg things you could send leftover fritatta as well. Marshmellows as a sweet treat now and then. Slightly boiled apple with a bit of butter and cinnamon and cardamon coated on it.]]> Wed, 21 Jul 2010 15:19:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1105298&title=lunchbox#1105298 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1104470&title=lunchbox#1104470 Author: Dani01

* Different crackers - rice crakers, cruskits, rice thins, Shapes
* Mother Earth Fruit sticks
* Creamed Rice
* Dried fruit - apricots, apple slices/rings]]> Tue, 20 Jul 2010 19:57:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1104441&title=lunchbox#1104441 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1103632&title=lunchbox#1103632 Author: tishy

Savoury muffins, pita with hummus, pikelets, scones, veg soup, yogurt, fruit (mandarins, bananas and kiwifruit at the moment as in season) H also loves those fruit sachet things from only organics, I think it's the novelty of sucking it out!

Off sandwiches here which is a pain. He pretty much eats what I do, not a big fan of 'baby' food. ]]> Tue, 20 Jul 2010 08:32:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1103438&title=lunchbox#1103438 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1103183&title=lunchbox#1103183 Author: Kimnthekids

Send the yoghurt anyway, then they can clean up the mess! lol Daniel wasnt good at yoghurt or spoon feeding himself but they are use to the mess there and he can learn from watching all the other kids]]> Mon, 19 Jul 2010 20:03:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1103084&title=lunchbox#1103084 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1103082&title=lunchbox#1103082 Author: ginger

Stealing those ones! I'll also do marmite on a cruskit because he quite likes those, and if I've done baking that's not too bad, half a bicky (eg. chocolate chip cookie) ...

I'm having the same problem with lunches. We do cheese on toast with marmite (cold), a quartered plain pita bread, raisins, a squeezy Olny Organics fruit sachet (he's 18 mos, but loves them), bobby bananas, tomorrow I'm going to make some cheese muffins because he loves those too ... erm ... cheese sammies with Vogels bread (he loves it), I made a cheese and ham toasted pita that barely got touched the other day (mind you, he's been teething on the sly, so it might have been that) ... ahhh ... Yep. We're pretty boring here too!! I have to get loads of cheese into him though because he doesn't drink milk, and he's still not feeding himself well enough for me to send him with a yoghurt, because he needs help with that.

Sorry - not very helpful! ]]> Mon, 19 Jul 2010 20:01:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1103080&title=lunchbox#1103080 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1103076&title=lunchbox#1103076 Author: kebakat

Ours is mostly a mixture of the same stuff:

- sammies (but we have a few spread choices)
- fruit usually mandarins, grapes, apple, banana or whatever
- fruit jellys
- yoghurt
- cheese
- crackers
- rice wafer things (they come in a bag like chips)
- rasins
- carrot fans (lol carrots chopped into fan shapes cos my boy is obsessed with them)
- cereal like nutra grain in a little container
- cucumber slices in summer or if i happen to buy some in winter
- leftover quiche or sausage rolls]]> Mon, 19 Jul 2010 19:58:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1103076&title=lunchbox#1103076 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34800&PID=1103065&title=lunchbox#1103065 Author: Dani01

I'm getting bored making DD's lunch each day. I feel like I'm giving her the same things all the time and I really don't want her to be fussy like me!!!

What do you put in your kids lunch boxes for daycare?
