The Best Foods For Preschool Birthday Parties

Make lots of snacks for a preschool birthday party.


Preschoolers like to snack so provide different types of food and drinks at a preschool birthday party. Make sure and find out beforehand if any of the children have allergies and if you need to do something special for that child. Otherwise, just keep plenty of napkins on hand for the kids. Does this Spark an idea?


Finger Snacks


Snacks that are the perfect size for small fingers are a good choice for a birthday party. Goldfish crackers, cheese squares, fruit snacks and dry cereals are good choices. Other choices include chips and dips or salsa, pretzels or party mix. Popcorn is also a popular choice among preschoolers


Meals


Miniature pizzas, macaroni and cheese, chicken nuggets and hamburgers or hot dogs will please preschools. Grilled cheese sandwiches and noodles with butter and cheese sprinkled on top are good choices for kids who may not like meat.


Sweets


You must have a birthday cake or cupcakes for the kids. Individual containers of ice cream are available in several flavors, and you can set out a tray of cookies for kids who may not like cake.


Healthy Options


For more nutritious party options, look to fruits and vegetables. Most kids like anything that comes with a dipping sauce, so cut up some raw carrots, broccoli, celery and cauliflower and offer peanut butter, ranch or thousand island dipping options. Kids also may enjoy strawberries, orange slices, apples, bananas and grapes. Provide a yogurt dip for the fruit. Granola bars are another healthy option.
