Do you want to build a snowman…in your little one’s lunchbox? This festive snowman bento box is a cute idea to try around Christmas, Hanukkah, or winter break.

Cut out the snowman’s body with a sharp knife or snowman cookie cutter. Top with mini blue M&Ms or cake toppings, and adorn with candy eyes, a tiny carrot nose, and a Babybel wrapper nose. Use slivered chocolate, fruit leather, apple peels, or beef jerky for the snowman’s hat and scarf.

Look for holiday-themed foods to pair with the snowman sandwich, such as snowman-shaped fruit snacks or marshmallows. Sprinkle snowflake candies around the plate or bento box, and include a snowflake toothpick decoration.
