With Halloween less than 2 weeks away (!) how’s about a some fun Halloween bento lunch ideas for the littles! I have to admit we started in on the Halloween bentos the minute October hit…we just love Halloween over here! On a side note, I just bought fabric for the littles Halloween costumes the other day. Here’s hoping Oliver will take some good naps for momma so I can get them done in time!
Lunch 1: Homemade applesauce, blackberries, baby carrots, orange and black Halloween tortilla chips and salsa (chips from Target!), and blueberry jam sandwiches cut out like little ghosts.
Lunch 2: Coconut flakes and dried blueberries, homemade applesauce, grapes, chopped cucumbers, pumpkin-shaped ham sandwich, pumpkin-shaped cheese slices, and pumpkin-shaped pretzels (from World Market).
Lunch 3: Baby carrots and ranch dressing, grapes, pumpkin-shaped cheese, pumpkin-shaped pretzels, pumpkin-shaped jelly sandwich with little bat-shaped pretzels, and a couple of those candy-corn type pumpkins for dessert.
Lunch 4: Orange and black tortilla chips and salsa, homemade applesauce, blackberries, and star-shaped ham sandwiches. I was going for a starry night theme with the ghost pick and all!
Lunch 5: Homemade applesauce, blackberries, orange and black chips and salsa, and turkey and mustard ghost-shaped sandwiches.
Lunch 6: Cucumber slices, grapes, pumpkin-shaped pretzels, a few fall-colored m&ms, and a ghost-shaped jelly sandwich.
And there ya go! Hope you are inspired to put together a little Halloween bento lunch fun for your kiddos with these cute and easy ideas.
Thanks for stopping by today!
XOXO,
I love this ghost food pick!
Thanks, Jule! They are so cute, aren’t they?! I got them at BentoUSA.com for a couple dollars!
What did you use for the little eyes on the sandwiches? My son is almost 4 and would love those on his sandwiches in his lunch! Thanks!
The little eyes are candy eyes you can find in the baking supply aisle at Michaels or JoAnns. Amazingly, my children actually pick them off and leave them in their lunch box! I’m surprised they don’t like them!
