[smartestgiantintown]

Hi...
I am regular(reader) on mn and i found you all so helpful regarding lots of things and now again i am bit stuck.
From tomorow my d1 is starting fullday nursery(3 days) and she is supose to bring her own food-realy anything what she eats-but the thing is she is soooo fussy= can you please tell me what do you pack for your dc as a pack lunch???!!!! I am realy confused how to do all preparation and packing.I realy need help, please don't laugh- i realy do not know what to do...
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCHHHH FOR ANY REPLY....

how old is she?

what does she eat for lunch when she's at home?

sandwiches, fruit, and yoghurt? or you could do stuffed pittas as a variation?

or pasta from the night before maybe?

you can get little flask things that hold food warm for a few hours. they're good if you want to do something different to sandwiches.

Thank you for help. She is 31/2 and she loves pasta.I actualy never gave her a sandwich-my fault realy-only cheese-toast sandwich..Where can i buy food flask??
She will eat things like pasta or rice with liver or chicken...But can't give her that for school or i can???
She eats fruits,so can pack fruit and yoghurt...
HAVE to try to introduce her sandwiches..or as you said pitta with different stuffings... THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH..(not so smart giant afterall..ha-ha)..

lakeland do the falsk thingies, so do blooming marvellous, jojo maman and some others. i think tesco do a cheap version too.

Thermos food jars here - scroll down to 'Coolkidz Thermos Funtainer Food Jar' - will keep things hot or cold so you could make pasta salads etc.

(oh and they are the really good ones that keep food hot hot - the cheaper ones like these are only really good for keeping stuff cold)

I live 10min from Brent Cross-there is a Lakeland shop-so when hubby comes from the park with girls (both of us r on hol.), i will go for a shoping...
Will let you know how i am doing...THANK YOU SO MUCH-FEELING MUCH BETTER...
P.S. And will look on the net too.

One of my minded children likes eating cold pasta, which her mum mixes up with sweetcorn, bits of chicken, raw pepper, halved baby tomatoes etc - she eats it all with her fingers, so is nice and easy.

Try to make sure that anything you send in a pot or wrapped up is something your dd can open up herself, it would make things a bit easier!

Good luck

Good morning everybody...
I bought flask's for food so i am just cooking pasta and lastnight we had meatballs so she will have that for a lunch + banana+yoghurt.
Thnk you once again for help...
Have a good day everybody...
