Sibylla: I make my daughter a part of the process from picking out what snacks she wants when I'm grocery shopping to packing up the snacks for lunch.  I keep the snacks on a low shelf in a bowl and she grab the two that she likes and puts them in her lunch box in the morning.  I narrow down her choices at the store and make sure that the choices are healthy.  She's a picky eater, so she will ask for the same sandwich the whole school year.
