Little Passports Memberships (And Global Lunch Time Inspiration!)

Is anyone else tried of making PB&J for the kiddos lunches yet?  Maybe some of these “lunches from around the world”  will give us some inspiration!

South Africa– South African school meals have natural ingredients such as corn, squash, sweet potatoes, and yams. There’s also rice, soft porridge, and meat that is sprinkled in with the vegetables. A special stew is made called potjiekos (named after a potjie, a three-legged pot), which originated from Dutch settlers. The cook puts vegetables, meat, potatoes, and spices into the pot, which is heated by small amounts of wood and twigs. After cooking, the result is a delectable stew!

Japan– In Japan, the school lunch ingredients are locally sourced and almost never frozen; in addition, the schools employ nutrition experts that work with kids and teach them the importance of good eating habits. Like the children in France, Japanese kids also eat in a community-like setting with their peers, and even their teachers! The children also wear white hats and robes to serve their classmates, which teaches them teamwork and respect. You can expect to find lots of rice, vegetables, fish, soup, and meat on the plate.

This is the kind of fun info your kiddos will learn with their Little Passports Membership.  Each month your child will take an adventure to a new country.  This would be perfect for a unique birthday gift!  Plans run as low as $10.95 a month.  Check out Little Passports here.
