I just might have to rethink my lunch strategy from now on. These super-adorable lunch time ideas from crafty DIY’er, Lisa Storms kinda have me wishing I was back in school! An ocean-inspired lunch with dolphin-shaped sandwiches, goldfish and a clementine sailboat, a monkey quesadilla and rabbit-shaped sandwiches that even have a marshmallow tail – yes, please! What’s not to love!

Whoever said we shouldn’t play with our food had it totally wrong!

Not only are these lunches fun and creative, but they’re pretty easy to make. Sounds like a win-win to me. You’re kids will be excited about their lunch and it won’t take you forever to make.

All you need to do is arm yourself with a few fun cookie cutters, and the lunchbox possibilities are endless! My favorite is the lunch that goes back in time with a dinosaur sandwich complete with broken tortilla chips along the spine, grapes as dinosaur eggs and small pretzels sticks as the bones.
