Ideas for Kindergarten Lunch, Snack and Afterschool Snack???

One of the teachers at my son's school sent us this link:

It has some good suggestions and links to good suggestions, if you can get past the preachy tone :)
Things I have made for my kiddos- hummus and pita chips/carrots/green pepper, mini sweet peppers (the yellow and red ones that look hot, but are not) stuffed with cream cheese, celery sticks with peanut butter or cream cheese (remember "ants on a log?"), bagel with a little marinara and mozzarella under the broiler for a pizza bagel, quesadilla with mild salsa, pb&j rolled up in a tortilla and cut into "pinwheels," Tasty Bite microwave pouches with pita chips, apple slices with cheddar cheese melted on in the microwave (yummy, don't knock it till you've tried it), greek yogurt with chopped walnuts or sunflower seeds and maple syrup. My kids like anything that they can dip into or sprinkle something onto, so you may see a theme above!

We generally did 3 fruit or vegetable items (either 2 vegetables and 1 fruit or 2 fruit and 1 vegetable) and then either a dairy or protein (plain yogurt with fresh fruit chopped into it, peanut butter and jelly, grilled cheese, left overs from dinner, roasted almonds). It sounds like you are doing fine. Occasionally for snack my son likes celery sticks with a little peanut butter (you could use sunflower butter if your school is peanut free) and a few raisins on top (he calls it frogs on a log). If your child likes eggs - a hard boiled egg is a great idea for lunch or snack.

With all the insulated lunch bag, thermos and container options you can pack just about anything.
But the most important thing to remember is to pack what you KNOW they will eat, whether it's a sandwich, sushi or last night's spaghetti, you know your child's tastes/preferences better than anybody. When I worked in the lunch room I saw way too many kids throwing food away simply because they didn't like it. They would shrug and say, this is what my mom packed but I don't want it :(

Pack what you know he will eat. Would he eat any of these?:

-salami
-protein bar
-carrot sticks & ranch in an insulated lunch bag w/an ice pack
-crackers & cheese
-peanut butter on celery sticks
-pb&j
-little container of hummus & pita chips
-pita pocket sandwich stuffed w/whatever he will eat (turkey, ham etc)
-slice of leftover pizza wrapped in foil

Good luck, anxious to see your answers for my grandchildren i get after school....

My daughter doesn't really like sandwiches so I do stuff that's all serparate. I pack flavored wheat thins, cheese stick, milk and applesause. Or we found Jammy Sammy's at Target and Sendiks. They are whole grain and organic and my kiddo loves the apple cinnamon ones. A frozed yougurt tube works well in a lunchbox. Carrots and PB are big for her. It's all filling stuff, but not big stuff so she can eat part or all and if only eats part, she can finish what's leftover after school.
