I keep seeing posts about cool sandwiches you can make for your kids–cutting little strips of cheese and vegetables to look like faces and hair and laying them on the bread, for example. But I’ve found the quickest and easiest way to make fun, original sandwiches is with plain old cookie cutters! I’ve amassed quite a little collection of the metal ones and keep them stored on hooks under my upper cabinets for easy access. Make the sandwich, punch, and done. Stores sell plastic “sandwich cutters,” but these are cheaper, sharper, and come in an endless array of designs. The girls like the fun shapes, it takes the crusts off, and it cuts the sandwich into littler pieces to make it easier to eat.

Ike will only take his bread in the shape of a ‘choo choo’!
P’s current fave is one piece stamped as a cow and another as a moon…that way she can make “the cow jump over the moon” 🙂
