With the holidays behind us, it’s once again time for packing school lunches. Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, and I have a sweet idea for a Valentine’s Day lunch for kids.
This simple, wholesome lunch is sure to be a hit with your kids.
A Valentine’s Day lunch is deserving of a special treat, so I included a Snack Pack, made with real nonfat milk and fortified with as much calcium as an 8-ounce glass of milk*.Â
What’s inside this Valentine’s Day lunch box?
Heart Shaped PB&J. I have yet to meet a kid who doesn’t love a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Use a heart shaped cookie cutter for the bread, and a smaller heart to make the peek-a-boo opening on one side to reveal a bit of the jelly.
Add some fruit. This lunch contains cubed honey dew melon and cantaloupe. Also, some strawberries were cut into halves. I used a knife to remove the stems and cut a v-shape into the top, to resemble hearts. Use whatever fruit you have on hand. A miniature heart shaped cookie cutter could even be used to cut your melon into hearts.
For an added touch, place a heart candy on top of the Snack Pack Pudding. I had to laugh when I came across this candy with #Love on it. Everything seems to have a hashtag these days!

That’s adorable! I never made themed lunches for my kids, but it looks like I really missed out by not doing it.
Oh my gosh I wish I did this for my kids. I love that sandwich!!!
What a cute idea for a lunch! My boys would like this!
That sandwich is adorable! This whole lunch looks great my kids would love it all. So cute!
I love this cute idea! I pack my son’s lunch everyday and this is such a great way to celebrate Valentine’s Day!
This is such a cute lunch. I used to cut the kids sandwiches into shapes. I love the strawberry hearts.
OMgoodness…the strawberries cut to look like hearts are completely adorable. I would have loved having a lunch like that when I went to school.
That is so cute! My girls would feel so loved opening that up at lunchtime!
What a CUTE idea. I love all the hearts and such. This reminds me of when my mom used to put love notes in my lunch. She still does it when she packs a to go lunch for me when I come for a visit. Mom’s ROCK!
Cute lunch – sharing with Dawn. I know Isa would love this!
