Ask kids to brainstorm ingredients to make their own sandwich bar. Here are some to consider:

• Bread (buns, rolls, wheat, white)
• Meat (salami, bologna, pepperoni, chicken)
• Cheese (Swiss, Colby-Jack, American)
• Vegetables (tomato, onion, pickles, mushrooms)
• Condiments (mayonnaise, mustard, salad dressings)

Directions:

1. Encourage kids to add their own ideas to the mix.
2. Allow them to be silly!
3. Consider hosting an event where kids make sandwiches for family members.
