@ms.kat97: more preschool lunch ideas for the busy mommas and picky toddlers! I post these ideas 3-4 times a week and teach 3 and 4 year olds. we try to keep things simple for them to open, quick for them to eat as time is limited for them, and stick to things you know they like. try new things at home incase they are not a fan! I understand not everything can be opened but a lot can be made simple for them to get opened on their own and not wait on a teacher to make it to them. I have the time to sit out lunch and put it away in my classroom, not every teacher has this privilege. when there is only 25 minutes to eat it takes away their time waiting on a teacher to help everyone open every item in their box. so help me, help them! 🫶 these are just tips for you to help prepare them to be more independent during lunch time. they're still little and learning! yall click my live link to help out a momma!🥹🫶🫶 #lunchideasforkids #preschool #toddlersoftiktok #MomsofTikTok #toddlerlunch
If anyone is judging a kids lunch then they clearly don’t have kids.. let alone a picky one. Sometimes we have to pack in fruits/veggies/protein at home and just send something/anything they will are willing to eat at school.. so they aren’t hungry at school

People are judging what parents pack their children for lunch... let's remember to give grace to those parents who may not have it all. At least their kid comes to school with something to eat!

Most daycare and preschools here in Ireland have healthy eating policies and would not allow 90% of that junk 🙈

So this is why I have 26 kindergartners who don’t know how to open anything? Because their preschool teacher has been doing it for…. Please for the love of God Foster independence! Show them how to do it have them practice it over and over again, teach them how to use scissors to cut open the packages. I refuse to open a single thing in my kindergarten classroom and guess what they can do it

📝 me taking notes for my girl who starts prek next year. Thank you for sharing this! My girl is super picky (autism) so I’m very scared about lunch time.

I don't like that you opened everything, what if my child decided not to eat one of the snacks but now it has been opened and will spill everywhere in the lunch kit and go to waste and the child that age is supposed to try and open the things first before getting help, that's how they learn

I love this for parents sometimes they just don’t think about the time allotted for lunch and all the opening x18 kids is a lot of time.

I’ve always sent the packaged snack half open for my kids to be able to do it on their own. Thankfully I always kept that in mind

My daughters lunch for school is calories to keep her sugar up and give her fast energy for learning. She’s a picky eater and we can worry about macro and micronutrients at home 🥰🥰

So crazy how there’s so much sugar and junk that’s marketed as nutritious lunch! Love these helpful tips on packaging, though.

I just as a mom wanted to say opening those chocolates granola bars before lunch time sometimes they get kind of hard 😔 that's why I don't open my kiddos
