Muffin Tin Monday-Shapes

The challenge for this week's Muffin Tin Monday was Shapes. Since Wyatt is always asking what shape any given letter is I decided that I would make that our challenge. I made the boys' names our "shapes".

Wyatt's Muffin Tin had:
W Shaped PB&J Sandwich, Y shaped String Cheese, A shaped Raisens, and 2 T shaped Z Bars
Juice, Pineapple chunks, Animal Crackers, Spoon
Tortilla Chips, Hummus, Cottage Cheese, Strawberries
Seth's Muffin Tin had:
S Shaped PB&J Sandwich, E Shaped String Cheese, T Shaped Z Bar, H Shaped Raisens
Juice, Pineapple Chunks, Spoon, Animal Crackers,
Tomatoes, Tortilla Chips, Cottage Cheese, Strawberries

Can you tell how excited they were about their names in their food?

A few tips: The letter sandwiches work much better if you use a rolling pin to roll out the bread nice and thin and then put the two slices together and cut out the letter shape. All the other shapes are held together with toothpicks.

That was cute! I liked the letter/name theme for the shapes, I didn't even think of that.

What a great idea! I love the idea of their names for lunch! Each of my kids have 6 letters in their name - one for each muffin cup!
