We're in party planning mode here. It's my son's 6th birthday and he has chosen "under the sea" as the theme. We LOVE parties in our house. When it comes to planning food, it's a party so I let my hair down (more than usual). But I still like to have some balance. There will be treats but also some fun healthy foods. Here are some ideas:
- Every party we usually carve a watermelon (much easier to do than you think) and fill it with fruit salad. We've done a pirate ship, a basket, a frog, a brain and a baby carriage (for a baby shower). Kids and adults love these!
What fun, naturally colourful foods do you serve at your party?

- Sandwiches or toasted cheese can easily be made more fun with cookie cutters
- Popcorn or pretzels served in patty cake cases looks great
- Making pizza or sushi can be a party activity and a tasty meal. You can cut pizza dough into shapes using cookie cutters
- Fruit based mini muffins
- Fruit kebabs. Kids love food on sticks. For younger kids, use an ice-cream stick rather than a skewer
- Dip and veggies or crackers. Thanks to a quick google I found a fun 'octopus dip' for our the Under the Sea party
