Fresh & Healthy: Fun Fall Fruit to Add to Your Kids Lunch

Orange Pumpkin

Are you are looking for a sweet and healthy Fall or Halloween treat to send in your kids school lunch?  Grab an orange, draw a pumpkin face on it, and stick it in their lunch box.  They will love it!  It is a fun, sweet, and healthy food for them to eat.  They will be excited to eat their fruit at lunch.  Doing something as simple  as adding a face to an orange can motivate the kids to eat more fruit!

Thankfully, our kids have always enjoyed eating their fruits and vegetables, but adding a little extra surprise (like a pumpkin face) during the various Holiday Seasons gets them even more excited.  What are your favorite healthy Halloween snacks that you like to send in your kids lunches?  Our kids get enough candy sweets around Halloween Holiday so offering more healthier food options is always something we want to encourage.  Another bonus is the orange provides extra vitamin C which is perfect boost for the kids immune systems as we enter the seasons were colds seem to spread like wildfire through school.
