Five "Make and Eat" Ideas For A Kids

Parties


Parents tend to be terrified at the thought of planning a party for their

child.


Thoughts of children getting bored, not getting the right

kind (or amount) of food and just making everything look like a mess come to mind

which is why parents sometime opt for

cookie-cutter parties at food places.


But the thing is, it is possible to not spend

too much and still have the children enjoy a

party.


Below are 5 “make and eat” ideas that will help

the children get their hands busy, have fun

learning/making something and eating

it too.


And as a bonus, you can even showcase their designs and

have grown-up guests be “judges”.


Of course, all of them should get a prize for

their great efforts.


1. Cookie or cupcake decorating workshop


Decorating a cupcake or cookie is probably the most popular way of

getting kids involved in something that they eat.

It is pretty easy to set-up too.


Prepare a table with the following:

Ready-made cookies or cupcakes(cooled)

FrostingSprinkles, chocolate chips

Child-safe utensilsaprons


2. Pizza making workshop


Pizza is not a really a junk food.

Having a pizza making workshop is a great fun

opportunity for children to learn about the different food

groups that go into such a yummy pizza.


Have the ingredients prepared beforehand so all

the children have to do is assemble.


If you have older ones coming, they could try their hand at making dough as

well.

Making the children wear aprons and chef’s hat adds

to the feel of it too.


You can give the children cookie-cutters for the

pepperoni and ham if they want added shapes

on their pizza.


As a bonus, you can give a prize to the best pizza decoration, the most vegetables or even the best one at following your instructions.

Really, the categories are up to you.


3. Snow Cone Color and Taste Contest


Children love snow cones.

Making snow cones can be a great sensory activity for young children.


It’s a cool way for them to learn about and play with

colors and tastes.

Rent a snow cone concessionaire, introduce the

children to the colors and flavors and

let them mix away.


Or you can even have children take turns at

the “snow cone shop” as pretend vendors.


4. Bento box or food plating contest


Older children who are looking for more food

fun can enjoy.


Give them ample time to plan and prepare ingredients for them to use.

You can even ask for them to work in pairs of teams.


For added value, you can talk a little bit about nutrition and healthy

food does not have to be boring.


The extra perk?

After your party at home, your young

guests can prepare their own snacks at home.
