I am busy with a new routine: prepare simple food for my P1 child to consume during her recess time.
Everyday!
It is fun to mix & match and create one unique combination everyday.
And I start to be attentive to the frozen department of supermarket and hunt for proper food for packing. Food that in favor of my fussy little eater. Food that is easy and quick in preparation.
Apple, cashew nuts and raisins are her favourite and hence regular in the pack.
Sushi is just done when there is left-over rice and Tamanoi Sushinoko, when I am up much earlier.
Sometime, I feel smug on my creation.
Sometime, I get lazy and just chuck in a bun and a choice of her snack.The truth is, she never able to finish all of it. She plans well and usually take second part of her recess time for play. Often, she shares with her friends, 'cause the friend(s) asked for it. Yup, she is pretty honest with me on this part. I would just remind her that, "you suppose to eat most of it, not your friend". The bottom line is, I know what she eats in school and there is communication establish, like "Eclair for tomorrow?"
Happy me.
What a hardworking mummy! I look forward to doing the same when my little one starts P1! Long long time more :)

DeleteYour girl is very blessed! I love the bento set too. My girl is a fussy eater so... I will reach out when its my turn and I am stuck with no inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThank you for dropping by and wonderful encouragement:). She doesn't know how to use money which I am slowly guiding her now... perhaps you can slowly start introduce her the dollars and cents:).
DeleteU must have to get up extra early to prepare these food for your gal..your gal is so blessed to have all these yummy food prepared for her. Gosh when it comes to my turn for my son to go primary 1, I would prob get him to eat canteen food cos mom is too lazy to prepare.
ReplyDeleteHi Rachel, I need to wake up early to prepare dinner for the day, like boiling soup before set into the thermal pot, so prepare her food is kind of by-the-way:).
DeleteFood prepared with love! They must be really yummy that's why your girl's classmates are asking for them! I agree with you, the important thing is in knowing what your girl eats in school - doesn't matter if they are not elaborate bentos and it's another added opportunity to communicate with your daughter and find out more about what's going on in school. I wonder when my boy's turn comes, if I'll be half as hardworking as you are now :P
ReplyDeletewow! you are really a great mother!
