For this past year, I have been making bento lunch for my preschooler. I love making them but more importantly, my 3 year old loves them. She definitely enjoys her lunch much more now. Making bento is very easy if you have the right equipment. I will try to show some of those that I normally use.

One of my favorite are these Tovolo Ice Cream Sandwich Molds. They are originally intended for making ice-cream sandwiches but I have been using them to make regular sandwiches. They can also be used as an egg mold.

These are what my sandwiches look like when I use the pig mold. Aren’t they cute? If you have a little one at home and especially if they are picky eaters, do try these out. You might be surprised to see your little one gobbling up their food.
