Ocean Bento Lunch Ideas + Pearl Oyster Cereal Treats

Lunch is served! Welcome back-to-school, parents. As a busy mom to a 2nd grader, I really enjoy making sure that my little learner feels special and missed when he leaves home for 8 hours everyday. He’s always been a “lunch from home kid,” so joining the creative bento lunch bandwagon was an easy choice for me. But this is NOT just an ordinary back-to-school lunch post. If you’re looking for great bento lunch ideas, look no further. Come see all of the great Ocean Bento Lunch Ideas (+ 9 more bento boxes!) and grab your recipe for FUN Pearl Oyster Cereal Treats!

Ocean Bento Lunch Ideas

I find that every great bento lunch starts with a theme. With my little guy LOVING anything animals, this ocean themed bento lunch was a no-brainer. Check out how I made this easy lunchbox.

  • Whale Sandwich

How adorable is this little guy? A whale of a sandwich on a bed of blueberries for the sea, this little ocean friend is a great way to greet lunchtime. I added a little shredded cheese for the water spout too.

  • Under the Sea Veggie Medley

Need some motivation to get your kids to eat more veggies? (Don’t we all?) Using the under the sea theme, these veggies definitely take on a FUN and colorful addition to your child’s lunch by shaping into seaweed or coral. Add a little peek-a-boo friend and done!

  • Crunchy Fish Crackers

My kids always look for the “crunchy” item in their lunchbox. Add some cheesy fish crackers for a quick ocean themed addition.

    This is a wonderful idea. I usually do this for my son at home, he is not yet in school.
