Snacks


🍿 Popcorn Bar 🍿

Here is yet another easy peasy idea! I love that you just add a little candy to the popcorn. you could change up things or provide different flavored popcorn. this just seems super fun!

Just gather items such as:

  • Popcorn ( Plain, Buttered, Kettle, carmel, cheese or all of them! )

  • Candy ( Any kind you’d like although I would stay clear of chocolate unless its shelled like M&Ms or Reese’s Pieces )

  • Pretzels

  • Cereal ( Such as chex or other kinds used for trail mixes )

  • Small Marshmallows

I can’t see anyone complaining about this snack!

🧀 Kid Friendly Charcuterie Board 🧀

For a healthy Snack alternative this kid friendly charcuterie board is great! It’s also found under the meal section because it’s so versatile. It allows for easy grazing. This board is geared towards kids. Sure to please the most picky of eaters because you can literally add anything! Best of all they will love that they can quickly graze so they don’t miss any of the fun! You can even talk to the parents before the sleepover to see what some of their favorite sandwiches, meats, cheeses, fruits and veggies are.

Desserts


🍨 Banana Split/ Ice Cream Sundae Bar 🍨

Sounds delicious to me! Once again making it easy for the kids to serve themselves with minimal help. I don’t think many will need help with what to provide for this one but just in case….

Just gather items like:

  • Ice Cream ( I say keep it simple, vanilla can be dressed up but really you can provide how ever many or which ever flavors you’d like. )

  • Bananas (and other fruit too like Strawberries or raspberries)

  • Nuts ( Be sure to check if anyone has allergies! )

  • Chocolate / Carmel Syrup

  • Whipped Cream

  • Candy and/or Cookies

  • Maraschino Cherries

Really, so many different things you could add!

🧁 Decorate Your Own Cupcake 🧁

Ok, so, I’m guessing you’re seeing a pattern here 😁 It’s super easy and fun to let the kids make or decorate their own stuff and guess what? it only adds to the memories! I promise you can’t go wrong here!

Gather up items like:

  • Chocolate/Vanilla/Red Velvet Cupcakes ( really, any flavors you want )

  • Whipped Cream in a can or Frosting in Bag

  • Candy (various kinds )

  • Sprinkles! Gotta have sprinkles!

I just think these are fun!
