5. Design your own おべんとう. Be sure to include the basic ingredients of a traditional Japanese packed lunch—rice, meat or fish, cooked or pickled vegetables. You could also include some sort of salad, egg and some fruit for dessert, if you wish. Make sure that it is a balanced meal and that it is

colourful and attractive as it is arranged in your favourite おべんとうばこ. You are not allowed to include any chips or other fast foods or lollies!

List the ingredients for your おべんとう and then draw a picture of how you would arrange it in your

おべんとうばこ.
