Kids can sometimes be difficult eaters. When they are home all day, they are not tired or hungry and eating is just not for them. On such days I like to give my little boy a little freedom. I let him make his own sandwich, which is crazy, or creative or unique – Just like Carla in ‘Carla’s sandwich.
Here’s the link to the story read out by Allison Janney and the SAG Aftra Foundation. This warm story inspires kids to be unique.
After reading the story you can allow your kids to create something crazy with their sandwich. Either stuff it up with their favourite food like spaghetti or create something fun with some simple healthy ingredients. For ideas, you can check out Funkylunch.com’s gallery that is full of crazy sandwich ideas that kids can try to create. You can even buy a recipe book online on their website. or post pictures of what you’ve created on their gallery.
Have fun!
