I find it very surprising that parents are okay with their children eating lots of sugar every day... When I stop by my kids school and have a look at what kids are eating I find a huge variety... some are extremely healthy while others send lots of cookies, cupcakes and other things for dessert. Do the children really need all these sugary treats? Do some parents think that by doing that they are making the kids happy? It may end up being a temporary happiness as their bodies may be "fine" with them now but in the future they will suffer the consequences. Then I hear parents say "My child is a picky eater". Well, if the option of sugar is just not there then they will learn to eat healthy.
My kids get plenty of sugary treats in birthday parties they get invited to, so for school lunches the only sugar they get is from fruit and the rare time I may send dried fruit.
So I'll be posting pictures of what I send with our daughters to school,maybe that will inspire other parents who don't know what to send...
