The boy is off to Cub Scout this week. This past year was his first year in Scouts and he got his Tiger badge. In the fall, he starts as a Wolf Cub (and the husband has agreed to be one of the troop leaders). However, out of everything, I think he was most excited about day camp.
I was too--in the initial email, it was asked to bring lunch in reusable containers, to cut down on the trash generated. I can DO reusable containers! It's the disposable ones I have problems with.
This is one of the bentos I bought on our California trip--it's three tiered, but none of the layers are huge. It's great for separating out the fruit with no leakage. Faith has one in pink as well.
Ben has:
Top layer--ham and cheese sandwich on Nature's Own sandwich rounds, topped with an American flag pick and "Cub Scouts" cut out of cheese to decorate it
Middle layer--strawberries, blueberries, cantaloupe and raspberries with chocolate chips inside
Bottom layer--veggie straws and a Darth Vader cookie
They also had to bring snacks, so I used several individual containers that I normally use for yogurt/granola. One held strawberry yogurt, one had a sliced kiwi and some more blueberries, and the third had Triscuit crisps and some cheese. He ate everything.
