inspired by Dani's post i sat down with the kids and wrote a list up so that I should (hopefully) never run out of ideas for lunches and snacks for them. They don't tend to like a lot of the things other mums suggest for their kids such as pikelets (they'll only eat them fresh) or muffins (won't touch them at all) etc.
I also realised just how easy daycare lunches used to be a year ago before we had the coeliac diagnosis and everyone acquired particular tastes LOL
Ryan has just started kindy (the first year of full-time compulsory schooling here in the ACT) and their schoolbags do stay outside in the sun, so i pack his lunch in an insulated lunchbag, with a frozen drink in there (and things like sandwiches, yoghurt and slice / cake is frozen too). If i need to i will put a small freezer brick in too. i think emelia's bag is in the sun too at preschool.

Just a really quick note - corn thins will be really soggy within a few hours being spread with cream cheese/butter/cheese spread - used to be a fave of mine at one stage, but quickly learned to take the packet and spread jar to work with me ;)
