Healthy options for kids party (snack)

[LoveMyBaby786]

I'll be having my dd's 1st party at home with family and a few selected friends. There will only be a few kids, around 5 kids under 4 and 1 who is something like 8?

Anyways as there are loads of adults im having a mini choc fountain plus some sweeties but wanted some healthier and fun looking options for the kids. What do you suggest?

Not main meal foods as my mum will be cooking. This is just a table i want to set up whilst we are all on the bouncy castle so kids and adults can have nibbles and treats before we have our main meal.

Any suggestion? Thanks!

Fruit kebabs

For my sons bday I made sausage rolls from scratch, finger sandwiches, fruit cut it to shapes, home made chicken nuggets, home made crisps.

We had fruit kebabs for DDs party and they went down a treat. And watermelon cut into stars. I wanted to do an Elmo face made of strawberries but seemed like way too much fruit.

I second the fruit kebabs. We make cheese, cherry and pineapple ones - it's exactly what it sounds like. But any sort of berries/grapes/sliced fruit will do. Raisins or other dried fruit is good. You could make some oat biscuits of some sort - they'll still have added sugar, but you can made it with less than the recipe calls for, and it's still a healthy grain.

If you want savoury snacks as well, we did breadsticks and carrot/celery/cucumber sticks with dips (hummus, guacamole, etc.). Cheese cubes are good. Olives.

Fruit kebabs will go nicely with the chocolate fountain.
Cucumber sticks, carrot sticks, celery sticks, alongside some sort of dip. Mild salsa?
Mini pizzas? You can make them yourself easily, and top with loads of tomato and veg.

You could scoop out a watermelon Nd then regill it with the chopped melon, strawberries, grapes etc.
Or fruit kebabs with marshmallows always go down well here x
