Santa Claus, Reindeer and Snowman Christmas Bento

A long title for my post today! This is likely to be my last bento for this year. I would love to make more Christmas bentos but unfortunately, I doubt I have time to do so. :( I need to do some spring cleaning and get off my butt to pack for our upcoming trip soon.

Dinner Bento for IT, in the box are pork nuggets, spinach tamago, quail eggs and chicken nugget. Santa's hat and snowman's scarf are made out of candies!

Dinner Bento for LT, same food as above. IT ate LT's quail eggs. Yah, the fussy fella hates eggs. :P

This salmon was also part of their dinner, I served it in another plate. I just shallow fried it with the same oil that I did the pork nuggets and lightly drizzled with soya sauce.

We chanced upon a nice cafe, just at our neighbourhood library. There were lots of crafts available for the kids to do at the cafe. These mosaic tiles crafts were done by the boys there. I did help with the clipping of the titles and final tidying up. We will be paying the cafe a visit again this Friday, when we go down to the library to return our books. I'll share some photos of the place if I do remember to bring down my camera. :)

Teacher's Day Cards

Ok, this is not a bento related post. The boys did some teacher's day card for their teachers. This year, I came up with this easy idea, just decorating the front with stamping, and then the boys can draw and write their message inside.

The materials, I did the flags in advance for them, using washi tape and fabric tape.

LT drawing his teacher and him. :) He still can't write very well, so I held his hand and wrote together with him.

My boy has grown up. This is the first time IT writes his own message to his teachers, without any help from me. I like it, coz it truely came from his heart. :)
