Fun Party Food Ideas for Kid Birthday Parties

Planning a kids birthday party can have its frustrations. Depending on the age of the child, youve got more than a few things to consider. What theme? How many guests? Where will you have the party? What kind of food should you serve? If you want to make your childs birthday party a memorable one, you might consider planning a simple yet fun menu. Everyone does a party with cake and ice cream. How about serving your young guests delicious appetizers that theyll ask their parents to make for their parties too?

Here are a few suggestions for fun party foods that kids absolutely love!

Pizza Muffins

1 can refrigerated biscuits
1 cup tomato sauce
1 cup shredded cheese
1/2 lb. ground meat, browned & drained
1 tsp. onion salt
1 tsp. Italian seasoning

In a muffin pan, place a biscuit in each cup, pressing until it completely covers bottom and sides. Combine tomato sauce, onion salt and Italian seasoning. Place 1 tablespoon of tomato mixture and 1 tablespoon of ground meat in each muffin cup; to with cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for about 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool slightly before removing muffins.

Apple Lady Bugs

2 red apples
1/4 cup raisins
1 tablespoon peanut butter
8 thin pretzel sticks

Slice apples in half from top to bottom, and scoop out the cores using a knife or melon baller. If you have an apple corer, core them first, then slice. Place each apple half flat side down on a small plate. Dab peanut butter on to the back of the 'lady bug', then stick raisins onto the dabs for spots. Use this method to make eyes too. Stick one end of each pretzel stick into a raisin, then press the other end into the apples to make antennae.

Tag-a-Longs

1 box Ritz crackers
1 small jar peanut butter
Coating chocolate

Cover Ritz crackers with peanut butter and top with another Ritz crackers to make a "sandwich." Melt chocolate and dip sandwiches in chocolate until covered. Allow to dry.

Remember to have fun and involve your child in the party planning as well. They will love the experience and the time spent with you. Planning a childs birthday party doesnt have to be stressful or ordinary. Add some fun, personal touches to the event and your party will be a success!
