I am planning a party in the local village hall for my DD's 4th birthday party in a couple of weeks' time. Having just had DD2 I am keen to keep things simple so I think I will do party boxes with the kids' food in, along with a few little 'presents' to save the hassle of prepping an actual meal, and to save doing full on party bags.
So my thoughts for the food contents of the boxes would be:
- ham / cheese sandwich (will ask preference on the invite). Do you think two small sandwich triangles are enough, based on the fact most kids ignore savoury food at a party?
- babybel or similar individual cheese
- sasuage roll or a couple of cocktail sausages
- small pack of crisps
- a couple of cherry tomatoes
- a few grapes
- yogurt tube thing
- small pack of sweets or choc buttons
There will be jugs of water or squash so I won't buy individual waters etc. I also figured that the birthday cake can be pudding.
Is that too much / not enough food stuff in the boxes?
Any recommendations for party bag gifts for 4yr olds?
Thanks in advance - any feedback welcome!
