[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do all your kids stop at 1 sandwhich?  my 5 year old can chow through 3.  I give him one, make him eat a fruit or veggie before I give him another, then insist on yougrt or cottage cheese before a third.

I'm debating how to handle school - I can't really send three sandwhiches!??![/quote]

If he needs to eat that much, I'd let him.  Is he getting a decent protein/fat/complex carb based breakfast that fills him up?  If not, you might try tweaking that.   But I'd definitely send two sandwiches if you feel you need to.  Not sure how to pack three of them.

My son is skinny and seems to pick like a bird at food at home, but he's ravenous at school (he's 5 too).  I pack one turkey and cheese sandwich on whole grain bread, one cheese stick, one yogurt, a fruit, and some whole wheat honey pretzel sticks.   He eats it all.  Sometimes I give him a hard boiled egg or two instead of the yogurt.   And I pack his snack for aftercare, which again is some sort of protein/fat to hold him.   [/quote]
