Snax Box # 080 Sweet Potato & Mix Vegetables

These two weeks I was busy doing revision with lil prince for his kindy assessment and didn't have time to make nice snack box for him:(.  I guess we as the parents are more 'kan cheong' than the child.  Maybe he's still too young to realize that he is having assessment.  On the other hand, it is also good for him as there will be no stress but the stress is on Mummy!

Here's a simple snack box that I asked lil prince to help me yesterday.  I boiled the sweet potato and asked him to cut them into shape butterflies and flowers using the cookie cutters.  I did once before the flower shape sweet potato and this is the second time.  I like to engage my lil prince to pack his food box together with me as he shows interest in his food and most of the time, he will also finished them.  Probably because he also plays a part in packing the food box and does not want his effort wasted ^__^.

Here's the snack box menu for today
Pink bus food cup - Sweet potato
Blue car food cup - Mix vegetables
Green house food cup - ABC's biscuits
Pink butterfly food cup - Chicken Floss
Yellow heart shape food cup - Fruits ( grapes & jambu air)

    I wonder when you cut those potatoes in butterfly and flower shape, what would you do with those potatoes left over from the edge of the shape?

      Yan,
      My lil prince ate them while we were cutting it. Most of the time, all the left over items I bring to office the next day for my breakfast.
