Infants, Toddlers, & Preschoolers
| Preschool kids, 4 and 5 year olds, at our home-- looking for ideas for lunch other than pizza! Thanks! |
| Mini grilled cheese that you can do a bunch in the oven under the broiler or mini burgers |
| uh-oh, you're scaring me. Our party for 3 year olds is from 10-12 tomorrow and we were just gonna have cake, is that ok? I don't think I handle can feed the kids lunch too???? |
|
Big pot of mac 'n cheese, grilled hotdogs, cheese/ham and crackers (you could make ham and cheese kabobs for fun).
16:39 do not worry about lunch for your crew - I wouldn't expect it at that time! |
| little tea sandwhiches of pb and j (if there are no allergies), turkey and cheese, cream cheese and cucumber, salami and cheese. Goldfish. Baby carrots and dip (although I would never have dip in my house) |
|
How about a fruit salad?
|
| Roll the fillings of your choice in tortillas and cut into smaller pinwheels. Celery sticks studded with pb and raisins. Apple slices w/ yogurt to dip in. Big bag of potstickers, ravioli or tortellini from Trader Joe's or Costco (go easy or nonexistent on the sauce for the sake of your carpet). Cheese and crackers. Lots of pre-cut fruit. |
| I second the pinwheels. You can either make them yourself or buy a little try of cut wrap sandwiches from the grocery store. |
| At my sons 3rd birthday I served Pb and J sandwiches cut into shapes with cookies cutter, egg salad and chicken salad, sandwiches pasta salad, pigs in a blanket, and spring rolls hummus and veggie sticks ants on a log with celery and fruit salad. All finger friendly, kid friendly and the semi adult friendly. |
| chicken fingers and fries all done in the oven... |
| We always do BBQ from some place like red hot and blue or Rocklands and supplement with fruit, mac and cheese, etc. Both kids and parents like it. |
| Chick-Fil-A makes great party trays and THEY DELIVER!! I had this at my son's party and it was great for adults and kids alike. I was very pleased and there was no messy prep in my house and clean-up was a breeze. |
