...and they take the whole mile. I decided to let the kids pack their own lunches as I've seen many of my friends and neighbors do. They're 5 and 6 and fully capable of doing this chore. This comes on the heels of Nubbin asking for more chores in order to earn money.
Well, Nubbin did a great job.... turkey and cheese sandwich, apple slices, chex mix and a cookie for snack... Fafa? well, let's just say I'm coming up with guidelines this afternoon for healthy choices to 'help' them make good decisions. He packed 2 cookies (one in it's own ziplock bag), apple slices and water. He was quite pleased with himself, so I didn't steal his thunder... but, husband's concern made me think that I should have laid down the ground rules beforehand. More independence will give them confidence right?
