Healthy Valentine Snacks {for School Lunches and School Parties}

When I was young, my grandmother always cut my sandwiches into hearts around Valentine's Day.  Now that my youngest girl is getting older, I am starting to realize that my days of heart shaped sandwiches may be numbered.  I'm not sure Owen will appreciate them as much as his sister!  So this year I am planning to take advantage of Miss Ruby's love of all things Valentine and add a few extra healthy Valentine's snacks to her lunch in February.

Modern Parents, Messy kids has a fun idea for heart shaped fruit kabobs that would be a big hit with the 2nd graders.

Christmas Sandwiches

I showed you the reindeer sandwich, and now there is a Santa to go with him:

And there is a snowman to keep them both company:

both of these cute guys are from Little Food Junction.

Reindeer Sandwich

I have been cutting Lou La's sandwich in a heart shaped since the start of school this year.  It was something my grandmother used to do for me when I was in school and it is one of my favorite memories.  The Boy even let me cut his sandwich in a heart shape this week.

Thanks to Little Nummies, I can use the same heart cookie cutter I have been using all year, but turn both of my kids sandwiches into these reindeer:

And I am pretty sure non of The Boy's friends will even notice it is a heart!
