What meals can I prepare for a toddler's birthday party?

My son will be two years old next month as well. :) October 2nd. With birthday parties no matter the age simple is generally the best way to go for two reasons.

One, you're already busy having to make complex meals is just not a worry you need. Two, people are picky complex is easier to include things people don't like. As a result I usually just go with the following... -A vegetable and dip platter -A fruit platter -A meat, cheese and cracker platter -Chips and dip (usually X2) I try to make each one fit the theme.

For example I'm doing a bug birthday for my son so ants on a log will be included on the veggy platter. If you do want to offer a more substantial meal you could include pizza, hot dogs of hamburgers. Typical bbq food makes great party food.

I would keep food simple and tasty. Make some racecars for a party. Mix up some tuna fish with salad dressing and put it in a hot dog roll.

Secure slices of raw carrots to the lower part of the bun with some toothpicks. This one is perfect for people of all ages and it’s a neat idea to have same cars filled with either egg salad or some ham salad. You can also purchase a package of crescent rolls at your local store.

Unroll the dough into individual pieces add a strip of ketchup and some cheese and roll up a hot dog inside. If you know how to make French toast, you can make a peanut butter sandwich and fry it in the egg and milk mixture. My kids love this one and have since they were toddlers.

Fruit flavored marshmallows, slices of bananas, cheese puffs, and chunks of Jell-o always are big hits. Arrange tator- tots and chicken nuggets on a plate in the shape of a flower. In the middle were the pedal would go add a squirt of ketchup, ranch dressing, or perhaps a dollop of cheese sauce.

Wow, this is interesting! My daughter will turn 3 this 26th of this month and like you, I already have planned for recipes esp. For her kid guests.

And since I know that most kids love fried chicken, I am including it in my list. And I’m making it lighter, too like this recipe: -quote- Lighter Fried Chicken Recipe Ingredients: • 4 skinless chicken breast halves, about 4 to 6 ounces each • 2 cups low fat buttermilk • 1/2 cup corn flake crumbs • 1/2 cup flour • 1/4 tsp salt • 1 tsp pepper • 3 tbsp vegetable oil Preparation: In a covered container or sealed heavy duty food storage bag, soak chicken in buttermilk for 4 hours in the refrigerator. Discard buttermilk.

Combine corn flake crumbs, flour, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Dredge chicken in the mixture until well coated. Heat the oil in a large skillet.

Fry the chicken for 15 to 20 minutes, turning once. Drain chicken thoroughly on paper towels before serving. -end of quote- You can also include spaghetti, hotdogs, marshmallows, chocolate brownies, cup cakes with colorful frosting and sprinkles, ice cream and a glass of fresh fruit juice.

And since their parents are coming too you can have a roasted pig, pancit canton, rice, sandwiches, fruit salads, chocolate cake, fruits and soda beverages. There are more you can have but if you are considering vegan meals, you can also search for them online.

Preparing foods for a toddler's birthday party is really a challenge. You have to be careful about both taste and nutrition. Whatever you prepare, avoid junk food.

Before preparing the food, consider how much food you will need, the number of kids coming to the party and any allergies of the children. Prepare as much as possible in advance. It's nice if you can bake a cake yourself, rather than buying it.

You can serve cupcakes instead if you want to. With the cake you can serve sandwiches, mini pizzas, bread sticks with various dips, fruit kebabs, fresh fruits and popcorn. Learn more at this website: Source: 1st-birthday-party-ideas.com/toddler-par....

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
