Kids party snacks
Planning a kids party involves so many things,
which include the games, decorations, themes, gifts and of course
the snacks. Snacks are important and you need to ensure that
everyone gets enough to eat.
Remember a lot of kids are fussy eaters, even if your child is not, so err on the side of caution. Concentrate on child friendly and fun party
snacks and let your gourmet cooking standards slip for once, but do bear in mind that too much sugary foods and drinks can cause very hyperactive children.
Here are some ideas for kids party snacks:
Remember to plan
ahead:
The time of day for the party will influence the type of party
snacks that you may want to provide. If you're having the party mid morning or mid afternoon, snacks
should be fine. Think about how much you and the kids would normally eat around that time of day. Plan how many kids are coming and allow
at least 3 different savory as well as 2 sweet party food choices
as well as the cake. Don't forget that some kids are allergic to
certain foods, especially to nuts.
Prepare as much party food as you can in advance. Make use of your freezer if you have one, as you really won't want to be doing much cooking on the day. Leave yourself time to be having fun with the kids.

Take into consideration what kids party snacks you
should prepare:
Discuss with your child what party snacks / foods
they would like and allow treats to make the day feel special. If
you are having a theme party this may well dictate the sort of food
that you might choose. Finger foods, especially for the under 7's,
are much more child friendly and practical than a child balancing a
plate of food on their laps.
Allow at least 2 drinks per child:
This will obviously change according to the weather and how boisterous the activities are. Make sure that disposable cups aren't too flimsy, as with little kids paper cups tend to get a bit soggy round the lip and thin plastic ones tend to get crushed by little hands. This
also applies to paper plates.
Decide whether you should bake or buy:
Ask yourself how much time you have, how good your
baking skills are and what your budget is like. If you have time and
would like to bake something special for your child, then the choice
is obvious. Do this by buying a packet cake mix and decorating the
goodies yourself. Your child will love to help I'm sure!

Setting up the party food table:
Just make sure the table is accessible for all the kids attending the
party. You don't want anyone going home afterwards, complaining that
they didn't get anything to eat, simply because they couldn't reach to
grab a snack. Also make sure that you get enough to eat
as well, because you don't really want to be cooking later the evening
for the family.
