Spending a fortune on food when out and about

But whenever I make a picnic neither one of my children seems to eat much (with one barely touching it.)

This is also likely to be a problem at preschool when she starts in September. She just takes the filling out of sandwiches Hmm and that’s it usually, bar a few crisps. Has anyone got any suggestions as to what they might actually eat? DD is very fussy. Ds not so much but doesn’t tend to stay in one place for long to actually eat!

I wouldn't assume it would sort itself out in time and would just take various bits to offer.
