I always take out a bunch of different stuff for LO's meals but never make anything pretty. Maybe when he's a little older, or starts daycare... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-318264 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 22:41:07 +0000 SAHM0811 318264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I mistouched my vote! </p> <p>I make bentos for my eldest DD, but don't take the pictures. Was just at a Japanese store yesterday getting some new supplies! So fun! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-318250 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 22:27:20 +0000 pinkcupcake 318250@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@808love: Gorgeous!! I'm gonna have to mentally file this one away for future reference :)</p> <p>LO is too young for bentos (only 7 months old), but once she's a toddler, I'm definitely gonna go bento crazy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-317873 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 20:22:43 +0000 anonysquire 317873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love it!

I may or may not have just made a bento rainbow chart and dreamed up an app for it. And I definitely have a fun food board, a bento board, and a bentos I've made board. I also have a just plain old food board. :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-317717 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 18:39:29 +0000 Mrs. Pen 317717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@808love: PS I may or may not have a pinterest board completely dedicated to bentos/my kids future lunches hahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-317716 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 18:39:04 +0000 Mrs. Pen 317716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>have you seen all the amazing bento blogposts?! they're sooo cute!!</p> <p>I want to do bento when DS gets older - I love them and think they're adorable.</p> <p>@Mrsdaredevil: <a href="http://www.hellobee.com/?s=bento" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/?s=bento</a> check out some of the posts- they are adorable. It's basically just having fun with your kids lunch, but they are generally pretty healthy (depending what you put in them of course) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-317712 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 18:34:54 +0000 Andrea 317712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cute!</p> <p>Our daycare also provides food so I don't need to do bentos. But I was thinking of trying them out at home to get DD to eat a wider variety of foods. I just haven't had any time to hunt down the supplies yet even though I'm sure it wouldn't even take that long. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-317686 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 17:55:57 +0000 Sammyfab 317686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I will totally be a bento mama when my LO is old enough! Yours looks awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-317682 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 17:49:59 +0000 DillonLion 317682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@808love: Ha, good point! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-317674 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 17:40:07 +0000 808love 317674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Thanks! It is a fun creative outlet. I'm sure I'll do it whenever the mood strikes me but not everyday. By the way, I saw a whole bunch of cookie cutters at a garage sale! </p> <p>@Mrsdaredevil:<br /> Here's a link about the history and the Hellobee blog had a bunch of posts in the past so try their search engine.<br /> <a href="http://www.npr.org/2012/07/03/156199639/thinking-outside-the-bento-box" rel="nofollow">http://www.npr.org/2012/07/03/156199639/thinking-outside-the-bento-box</a></p> <p>@highwire: Ah yes, there's no 'need' for a bento for any of us, unless you live in Japan and it's culturally sane/appropriate/ the norm...for everyone else it's just for fun! :D Maybe a picnic at the zoo? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-317589 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 15:41:47 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 317589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What is bento lunch? I know what it is at a sushi place, but not for kid food. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-317583 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 15:38:26 +0000 DillonLion 317583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nice! I don't know when we'll ever have a need for bentos (our daycare provides all the food). Maybe when she's in elementary school! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-317579 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 15:37:17 +0000 heffalump 317579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So cute, and what a healthy lunch! My LO is still too little for bentos, but I can't wait, they look like so much fun! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/todays-toddler-bento#post-317577 Sun, 30 Sep 2012 15:34:20 +0000 808love 317577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bento mania! I was inspired by NPR to make the best one I've ever made. First time with the cut outs. Am I the only one on hellobee currently on a bento kick?? If not, post a pic. My only regret is that I didn't have purple sweet potato for color and nutrition.<br /> Edited to add ingredients: oranges, shrimp, nori, rice, cheese, avocado, watermelon<br /> [attach=1524/12/mb6jt8.600x450.image.jpg] </p>
