I’m always amazed at the creative bento boxes that I see kids enjoy – so beautiful! While we may not have time to get that creative for every lunch, the point is to get all kids involved (especially those with feeding difficulties) in the process of preparing food for the family. Keep it fun, focus on family and take it one step at a time. Thank you for your comments Sara!

I don’t think the point was to give kids a freebie junk food dinner at all. It’s about taking a step in recreating a potentially intimidating environment that will be unavoidable in their school day and making it safe and fun.
I LOVE the idea of cucumber stars, by the way. Have you ever heard of bento boxes? They’re typically a single container filled with fun yummies in all sorts of shapes and often made into a picture or work of art!

What an interesting perspective on my post! As a pediatric SLP specializing in helping kids learn to eat new foods, I’m having trouble finding where in my article I help “parents train their children to eat as bad as they eat in schools”. My post is about helping kid adapt to the school cafeteria, which can quite an overwhelming environment. I’d also like to point out that I encourage healthy eating in this post. I welcome your perspective and thank you for taking the time to read my article.

Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers?

I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on.
Any suggestions?

Instead of writing a post to help the parents train their children to eat as bad as they eat in the schools I think you should have written a post to teach the parents and the children how to eat a proper lunch and a proper dinner. Nobody seems to have learned this in America… See my posting on this:

When I worked in the schools, lunchtime was my biggest fear for my kiddos when transitioning them from early childhood to kindergarten. There are very few children that will actually be granted any type of adult assistance during lunchtime as it is also lunchtime for the student’s teachers and assistance. So the question always is, who can “cover lunch”? Well I LOVE this idea of getting the family involve and also showing them the need for working on these skills. So clever for working feeding AND pragmatics! And really it’s just a great social and self help skill that even our typically developing kiddos could practice before kindergarten. Love the post…sharing!!!

This post could not be written any better!
Reading through this post reminds me of my old room mate!
He always kept talking about this. I will forward this article to him.
Fairly certain he will have a good read. Thanks for sharing!
