Hi there,

My little one (4 1/2 years) only tends to have ham or cheese and I'd love some more suggestions for her please?

What do other people make?

Sorry, should have said - she doesn't like tuna and eggs give her the runs. 🙈

Really? Not even chicken? Or salad in the sandwiches they already like?

What would you put in them for a 4 year old to eat?

The poster is referring to sandwich fillings which are four years old :-)

I'd explore other lunch options, like wraps, frittata muffins, pasta salad, rice salad. Sandwiches on UPF supermarket bread are not heathy.

Hummus and grated carrot.
Pita pockets with falafel.

CheesecakeandCrackers · 12/02/2024 16:29

Butter and honey is popular in our house as is hummus and cucumber. We can't do nuts so peanut butter, nutella and pesto are out.

ThirdStorm · 12/02/2024 17:02

I think I had a ham sandwich every day throughout secondary school. I still like them!

Kalevala · 12/02/2024 17:08

Marmite
Marmite and cheese
Leftover roast meat
Peanut butter
Grated beetroot and carrot
Houmous and falafel wrap

shellyleppard · 12/02/2024 17:11

Tuna mayonnaise and sweet corn
Cheese spread and ham
Chicken and salad
Jam!!!!! ❤️

Hobbesmanc · 12/02/2024 17:14

Cream cheese and cucumber. Cottage cheese.
