I’m always on the lookout for kids’ lunch ideas that won’t take a ton of time to do. Making our sandwiches into kebabs was pretty quick, and the girls liked eating what they helped create.

Have a fun lunch with your kids by making their sandwiches into kebabs instead!
What You Need to Make Sandwich Kebabs
- Bread
- Lunch meat
- Cheese
- Veggies
- Cookie cutters (small)
- Skewers
- Knife
You can cut shapes out of the cheese, too, although we just used the knife to cut ours into squares. Other ideas: cut shapes from cucumbers, carrots, or hard boiled eggs.

Little cookies cutters can make even a simple lunch more fun!

If you don’t have any small cookie cutters on hand, you can cut the shapes with a knife. Kids could cut their own shapes out of soft cheeses with a safe butter knife. You can also use a small drinking glass to cut circles, or hunt around the kitchen to see if you have any items that can pass for a cookie cutter, like the lids of decorative tins or odd shaped drinking glasses.
