Torune Bento Sandwich Cutter Mold, Animal Face

This is one main cutter that will cut a piece of bread into four smaller pieces at the same time.  Great for sandwiches, easy to hold, comes with a four animal face bread press, including duck, cat, pig, and bear.  The pig is my fav, but they are all super presh (precious).

Joyoldelf Vegetable Cutters Stainless Steel Fruit and Cookie Cutter Shapes

Ok, so this is what you use to make those cute shapes in fruit or vegetables like in those ubiquitous edible fruit arrangements.  The cool thing about these ones is you won’t slice your digits and have to go to the urgent care on a Tuesday morning from using them.  They have a protective green cover over the metal parts so you only have to worry about the lunches. Safe and easy to use you just place the shape where you want it and push down using your palm and Voila!  Every lunch should have hearts, stars, and flowers inside, amiright?!



Talisman Designs Cherry Chomper Cherry Pitter

Isn’t trying to eat cherries with pits just the pits?!  This funny little cherry chomper pits a cherry quickly and safely and is so smartly designed a young kid could use it. My girl was four when she started her chomping career. Be careful though, this company will make you want to buy all of their kitchen gadgets cause they are so fun!



Thermos Funtainer Food Jar, Paw Patrol

THERMOS jars will keep your hot foods hot and your cold foods cold all through the school days. Their wide mouth is easy to fill, serve from, and clean.  If you want to turn some ho-hum soup to hooray for lunchtime pick one with your kiddos fav cartoon character on it and show them you’re paying attention to them always.
