    Makes me tear up when you said study their little hands and feet. I look at my 5 year old daughter’s hands and see how little they are. I think I wish they would stay that small forever. Baby hands still. 💕

    I’m Korean but grew up in the US. So yeah, bento for me was peanut butter and jelly sandwich in a brown paper bag 😢😭🤪
    But I do vaguely remember bento boxes in my short years in Korea. Even the silk blankey for the bento boxes. But they were nowhere elaborate as today’s fo shizzle.
    And did I see the tofu pouches stuffed with rice??? 😮.

    • @MariesKawaiiWorld

    When I became a stay at home mom to our now 18 month old, I also started making my husband bentos to take to work. He says its always something he looks forward to opening up. Now I'm thinking of making bentos for family picnics in the summer. The end of your video just had me in tears because of all the things we look forward to doing with our daughter.

    I won on Toreba a Totoro bag. I had no idea it was for a bento box. Thanks for the video. Also I have a question. How do you keep the food from shuffling around before lunch? I wouldn’t want the pretty design on the food to get messed up. Is their a tip on how to prevent that from happening?

    • @MariesKawaiiWorld
      @MariesKawaiiWorld  5 років тому +5

      You have to pack it in tightly and carry it carefully if possible!! I think that's why you always see Japanese bentos being stuffed to the brim. The rice and seaweed tends to keep it shape though because it's sticky.

    I can understand why the schools would ban them. At that age children do not understand that they aren't the center of their parents attention at all times and it can really have a Negative impact on their self-esteem if they are the ones left out of not having these elaborate lunches made by their parents.

    • @KD-ou2np
      @KD-ou2np 4 роки тому +2

      Those warnings are overestimated, most foods will be fine past that amount of time if they are stored cool at room temp. Those rules are meant for restarunats where they serve hundreds of ppl so the chances of spreading something are higher. You can be much more relaxed at home.
      Also, most of the foods are cooked, and lots of japanese food is preserved, fermented, salted, pickled, etc, so there is no worry about those foods going bad.
