Hi everyone!
I new to this bento-making and started making bento lunches for my picky 3.5 year old daughter. I work fulltime, have 2 daughters (3.5 yrs and 7 months) and just started a bento blog to document my novice adventures. I have a lot to learn which is why I'm here. But I am happy to report that my picky eater - who was previously sending home 80-90% of the lunches I sent with her to daycare - is now eating about 60% of the lunches I send. I call that progress! I'm happy to be here and can't wait to learn a lot from you guys!
