Childrens Fall Halloween Bento Box Lunch

Welcome September and Fall! Summer has officially left us this week, which is my favorite season. Heavy sigh...While I am sad to see outdoor swimming end and school start, once we are all in the routine and the nervous jitters of staring new classes have left the routines are back in place. I am Thankful for the change of season because they give us fun ways to celebrate like football, the beautiful colors of fall, pumpkin and apple picking, and Halloween.

So, now that we are in our routine and school is back in session why not surprise your little ones with this cute bento box lunch idea, or head to the park for a picnic on your day off. You will sure please everyone with this great lunch! Add a cute note card inside, it's the little things that will let them know you love them. The best memories are homemade from Mom and Dad!
