It’s been a busy March for us. Firstly, my gal took part in Thailand National Cheerleading Championship last weekend, and my boy is going for spelling bee competition in a couple of days. After that, they will each have their sports day, and I might be there to snap photos of my kids.
To commemorate this busy month, I fixed my kids a cheerleading and a spelling bee bento each. All cuttings were done last night, and these are some lousy quick shots taken.

For the body / tee, I cut them with this butterfly cutter.

The head were cut with a face cutter. As for the hair, I cut a round cheese, then I use the same round cutter to cut off the sides.

Then I stacked the cheese on nori

Cut another piece from the same round cheese and stacked it on the cheese as well. Then I cut the outline of the nori and this would be the hair.

I use this cutter for their arms.


The pom pom were cut from smoked cheese and red crab meat by using these cutters.
After that, I wrapped the decorative parts with cling wrap and refrigerated them in air tight container. The next morning, I prepared some sandwiches and fruits, and topped the decorations on the bread.

The bentos
I proceeded to punch some nori for facial details, and added food picks in the bentos. So, here they are:

My little cheerleader bento

And good luck to my boy in the coming spelling bee competition!
