Making Lunch Fun: It's Your Birthday!

I got this idea from Happy Home Fairy, and fell in love with the notion of having to unwrap individual lunch items.  What a fun way to make their school day special on their birthday! 

First of all: Yes, I sent my kiddo to school with a Mountain Dew AND a bag of cotton candy in his lunchbox. 

1) It's his birthday and he n-e-v-e-r gets soda with his lunch; dessert items are a rarity as well.

2) His grade level went on a field trip today, so it's not like he'll have to sit still at a desk for hours after consuming this.

   I used my star cookie cutter, to stamp out the sandwich shapes, drew a Minecraft Creeper face onto the Mountain Dew bottle with a Sharpie, and wrapped everything in polka dot wrapping paper.

What exciting lunch ideas have you tried with your little ones?
