Okay, I think I have seriously underestimated the power of a novelty sandwich for encouraging a fussy eater. One of the benefits of having a chef for a SIL is having access to a large variety of sandwich (or cookie) cutters. Below is just a peek of what’s available – lucky Gavin gets to choose a new shape every day.
Ever since my SIL started offering Gavin novelty sandwiches, he’s been excited about taking sandwiches to school. So far, he’s had a train sandwich, a bone sandwich, a boy sandwich, a fish sandwich and a duck sandwich.
Who would have thought cutting a sandwich into a funny shape would have such an appeal to a child?

That’s a great idea! I feel like eating them too.

Oh, looks so yummy!

Ah… the only problem I’ve discovered with this is that they work too well. Gavin eats so many sandwiches now that I’m left with a lot of excess crust which I can’t seem to eat up as quickly.
I’ve tried a new tact – giving him the inverse shapes. So far so good…
