[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do they need "snacks"? Can't the kids eat at home? I don't want my child to go over and be offered junk foods that we don't normally eat at home. Oh well maybe I will teach them that. But still, these "snack" motive must be part of american culture and sounds weird to me. They are not coming for the party so I would not worry about "snacks".[/quote] In middle and high school, kids come over straight from school. They may have eaten lunch at 11am, and now they're showing up at my house at 3 or 4pm. They haven't eaten in four or five hours. Just because they're eating at my house doesn't mean it's jelly beans and Doritos. You know what's been the biggest surprise hit? I slice apples, sprinkle cinnamon and then bake them for a few minutes. I wound up having to buy more apples. Apples and popcorn, and then pita chips with hummus and guac - the kids are happy.
