Last week Miss M's class were invited to come to Kindy dressed up as fairy tale characters to celebrate book week. Of course she wanted to go as a dragon, so I enlisted her help to come up with the perfect dragon lunch.
This was one I made a few weeks ago when the topic of dragons came up. Sandwich cut with dinosaur cutter and then the crust off-cuts fashioned into spines. Yoghurt, milk drink, and a cheese, pepperoni & cherry tomato flower. I realised I forgot the wings for the dragons and quickly added them in the morning.
This time I forgot the spines *sigh*. But Miss M decided that the mummy & daddy dragon needed to be sitting on a mountain of treasure 'Because dragons like treasure, Mummy!' So I cut some cheese 'dubloons', and skewered some fruit bits 'jewels/sceptres' and tossed in a few cachous for extra 'jewel-ly-ness'.
Mummy & Daddy were protecting their baby Dragon Egg, who also got to sleep in a bed of gold (aka corn kernals).
And some more fruit bit 'jewels' topped off her yoghurt. I couldn't resist adding a little note, 'You are my Treasure'.
Did you do anything fun for Book Week?

Oh - and here's a pic of Miss M helping out ;)
I enjoyed reading about how you and your daughter designed her lunch. So special! I love working with kids to come up with ideas for their lunch.
