Easy snack ideas for small toddler birthday party?

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 

Next week we are going to have 5 toddlers (and moms) over to celebrate my DD's birthday.  Its in the morning so I don't plan on serving lunch, but I did want to have a few snacks out that the moms and children could share/eat.  The thing is, I am having a minor surgery a few days before and will be on bedrest for 2 days, then off the day before the party...so I need something that doesn't take a whole lot of preparing.  Ideally a few things I could throw together the night before or that morning.

 

So far the only thing that comes to mind is a Turkey wrap "roll-up" with cream cheese.  Any other ideas out there?  Note: my DD is allergic to nuts.

 

Thank you so much!!!!

A lot of the moms at our playgroup bring veggie straws, and all the kids seem to really like them.  I think they're kind of styrofoamy, but they're kind of festive-looking, and would work great for dipping.  Pita (regular or chips) and hummus would be good, too.

We did veggies and dip and fruit and yogurt dip. Grapes, melon chunks, pineapple, pears and apples and then carrots, celery, peppers, broccoli, cucumber...whatever fruit and veg you all like.

Then we did cupcakes. Or you can do little muffins.

Or make up a banana bread and slice it up.

cheese slices

crackers

fruit/veggies and dip

pita and hummus

mini-sandwiches, like cucumber sandwiches or something

sliced mini-baguettes with soft cheese, bruschetta or garlic butter

cream cheese roll-ups- mix cream cheese with 1 packet dry ranch seasoning (or to taste), spread on wraps, sprinkle with                olives and green chilis- amazingly tasty

mini muffins, maybe pumpkin for the fall season
