    My school doesn't allow homemade treats to be distributed to the whole class. If parents want to send something for everyone to share, it has to be store-bought with a label.

    My daughter isn't at school yet but she goes to the local kindergarten & they aren't allowed to have packaged things!? Some places have bizarre rules. A lot of schools here don't allow cakes for birthdays, lollies or anything bad. 1 lady I work with even had her kid (very skinny normal boy) bring a packet something from his lunch because the teacher didn't approve!!!!!

    You just have to do your research & make sure that the kids aren't allergic/intolerant etc. etc. It's a tough gig being a kid these days!

    Traffic Signs: Celery sticks with processed cheese in the middle (I use laughing cow as pb is a no no) with a piece of red, yellow and green pepper on each to resemble a stop light. That is courtesy of my kindergartener.

    Also Fruit kebobs - kids love anything on a stick.
