Bento#138: Angel Teddy Bear

I think my kids miss me a lot after me going back to the office. My boy glued to me as soon as I got home yesterday, and he even insisted that I go swimming with him. I was just soaking in the pool, but he wanted me to be in the water instead of hubby. :P

Then, he wanted to fix bento together last night, all 4 of us! That was the first time hubby got involved in preparing the cutie details, so I briefed him on how to guide the kids.


I did a simple drawing of two angel teddy bears. I saw these cute teddy bears from a tissue pack.

 


Then, I prepared the cutters. Please ignore that pink Hello Kitty cutter because it’s not shown in today’s bentos. I kept it away for other days. :P As you can see, I arranged the cutters together for the teddy bear, so that my kids could have a better idea of how they should cut the cheese.

 


After that, they got themselves busy with the cutters. Hubby helped our gal by choosing the cutters for her as our 2-year-old was not too sure about how to make the pieces.

 


On the other hand, our boy understood better about what he should do, and he even managed to join the pieces together. I told him that it’s like a jigsaw puzzle, just join the pieces according to the drawing.

 

As usual, we kept all the pieces away in air tight container and kept them refrigerated until this morning. So, here’s the end result:


My boy’s bento with peanut butter sandwiches, some mangoes and 2 strawberries. That’s the angel teddy bear he cut last night, and I added his wing and let him sit on the clouds.

 


Here’s my gal’s bento, with a flying angel teddy bear.

 

Both my kids had the bentos as breakfast, but they didn’t finish the fruits. When I was leaving for work, they told me that they will finish the fruits later today. BTW, they said that they love the angel teddy bears. Yippie!

    Amy, more questions from me :) . What cutters do you use for the small and tiny bear, flower and heart and also the small dot in the middle of the flower? What cutters for the bear body and hands? Got that from CP too?

    Khongfamily, they are from CP. :) But you can also get them from 100yen shop, over here, I can’t find 100yen and Daiso doesn’t carry the small cutters. There are quite a number of packs, but I forgot how many packs I got, that’s why I have the same shapes in different sizes.

    Javapot, he was busy supervising my gal, I think he’s almost lost his patience. LOL! But we shall try this again, the kids seemed to be pleased with daddy getting involved.
