But also an experienced adult mother of two children. My son is 8, my daughter is 18, and during all this time I have held many, many children’s parties at home.
I always cooked it myself, I share my experience.
Main principles
It's beautiful, but fast
One of the main mistakes of many mothers is choosing beautiful and complex canapés and sandwiches with a bunch of small details (ears, eyes, noses) that cannot be made the day before the holiday, and for which there is almost never enough time before the guests arrive. Everything looks cool in pictures on the Internet, but it’s incredibly difficult to replicate it with an inexperienced hand. For example, make one sandwich and put it on the plate. Children can put the eyes on their own sandwich.
It takes a very long time to make these penguins from olives, carrots and cheese. I checked!
It's common
Don't even argue. I had the opportunity to make sure that children did not like the new experimental salads. They are generally alarmed by a mixture of 3 or more products. Of course, you can cook something original; adult guests will eat it if necessary, but you must have “standard” chicken cutlets, mashed potatoes, baked goods with the usual fillings, etc. You can show your imagination when serving all these dishes.
It's not harmful
The Internet is full of battles in the comments of parents with different opinions. Some people think that it’s not scary to offer pizza, fries and hamburgers once a year, flavored with mayonnaise and ketchup. Others insist that food should not be harmful on any day of the year. Endless debate, I don't interfere. You should definitely avoid foods that are too fatty, salty, fried (in case one of your guests has pancreatic problems), soda, and other drinks with aggressive dyes.
Age appropriate
This, I think, is understandable. Even now, the article is read by parents of two- and ten-year-old children. Naturally, there are restrictions for each age. If guests from 2 to 10 years old gather for the holiday (this often happens at family events), it is better to prepare several options for dishes.
This can be eaten carefully
Yes, this is a problem. Children come to the holiday in lush snow-white lace or simply in expensive fashionable clothes. A drop of red juice or ketchup, smeared blue cream on a cake, berry stains, etc. often spoil all this beauty forever.
Lots of drinking water
Many children can only drink water. The sweet, sweet juice you prepared may make you even more thirsty. Be sure to label small bottles of water with different bright labels so that everyone knows “their water.” After an active gaming program you want to drink a lot, make a sufficient supply.
Three rounds
Children don't like feasts. Most guests eat little and quickly. Let there be 2-3 approaches for 5-10 minutes. While the guests were getting ready, we had light snacks, then we played. Hot dish, more fun. Cake, have a nice evening everyone, goodbye. At a home party, you can allow such gastronomic breaks; no animator will rush you.
Constructor “Assemble canapes”
This is also my personal experience. Once I saw enough of beautiful and tasty canapés, I decided to make 5 types of 20 pieces each for the children. The result was disastrous. My whole idea with a combination of cheeses, berries, grapes, ham with vegetables and fish with lemon failed.
Comments poured in: “I don’t eat bell peppers,” “Ugh, unhook the fish, I just want an olive,” “I’ll have blueberries, but I won’t have cheese,” etc. The adults then finished eating this disassembled “battlefield” with canapés.
I took the experience into account and next time offered empty skewers and small bowls with olives, cheese, slices of cucumbers, tomatoes, bell peppers, lemon, slices of ham, chicken fillet, lettuce leaves and sprigs of herbs. More squares of white and black bread (3x3 cm).
It was a hit! You could make your own canapé and give it an unusual name. Teach children to skewer foods so as not to touch their hands on shared plates.
Main course
It’s difficult to write all the recipes here; I’ll give you a couple of ideas from my own experience.
Chicken skewers (cooked in a frying pan or in the oven)
This is my go-to dish. Many parents complain, but do not have time to try the kebabs themselves, since the children quickly eat everything. They are made first in a frying pan, then 30 minutes before serving - in the oven. It’s convenient for mom, since she doesn’t have to stand at the stove when guests gather, and preparations can be made in advance. The marinade is gentle - sour cream, olive oil, lemon.
Defrost the dough square. Cut the chicken fillet into pieces, beat it thinly, add salt and lightly pepper. We wrap a block of cheese in some pieces (this is for piglets), and put prunes in other chops.
Now we roll up those that with cheese, and the ball - with filling from prunes. If you are worried that not all children will like prunes, make them only with cheese.
Lightly roll out the puff pastry, cut into squares and wrap the meat tubes in it. We sculpt the ears and nose and tail separately and attach them to the “carcass”.
Roll out the other part of the puff pastry and cut into thin strips. We wrap it around the meat balls to form a ball.
Place them together on a baking sheet and brush generously with egg yolk. 45-50 minutes in the oven at 200 degrees (can be reduced to 180 at the end). What sweethearts... :)
Chicken cutlet balls
Previously, I made all sorts of hedgehog mice out of them, using pieces of different products. Then I got tired of it, I started sticking bright pictures on sticks (they are called “cupcake decorations”) based on the holiday theme or ordinary skewers. You can easily find Disney princesses, pirates, and all sorts of different super heroes. I had to print out Sherlock Holmes and attach it to toothpicks myself, but this can be done in advance.
My recipe: fry 2 onions in sunflower oil, combine with 1 kg of chicken fillet, add 100 g of soaked bread to 100 g of milk. Salt and pepper, put the minced meat in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. Fry the balls over high heat until a crust forms, then finish in the oven for another 30 minutes.
Build your own hamburger with homemade patty
Holding a children's party on your own is incredibly difficult, so I personally rejoice at every way to entertain restless guests.
A five-minute master class on assembling a hamburger with your homemade round cutlet will definitely appeal. Here again it’s easy to cut off the whims “I don’t like tomatoes, pickles, onions, lettuce, cheese.” Let them do what they love. From buns and cutlets. Or vice versa, only with tomatoes and cheese)).
I buy ready-made (small) sesame buns; I don’t offer sauce and mayonnaise to little ones.
Small pies with different fillings
Also a good idea, but it’s better to make the pies baked, not fried. The size of the pies is “one tooth”. My guests, even the most capricious ones, gladly agree to a pie with potatoes and a pie with meat. Experiments with salted cottage cheese and herbs, cabbage and fish pies are successful with parents, but children do not like them.
Take the time to make pies of different shapes, so that you can tell by their appearance what kind of “flying saucer” or “boomerang” filling they have.
I always make pancakes too. I suggest adults wrap salmon or caviar; kids eat it with sour cream.
Fruits and berries
Cups with berries
This is usually placed on a table with sweets (there is no Russian name, we borrow the English candy bar). Just plastic or cardboard cups with a mixture of washed berries. It is better, of course, not to give it to children under 5 years old, they will get dirty.
Just put them out before the start of the holiday, as this is the first thing children grab. Everyone likes small individual portions of beautiful berries, there is no strength to hold on. Let them eat something hot first!
Fruit hedgehogs
With this name and this example, I encourage you to organize a simple culinary master class. Everyone always gets a hedgehog, you can even take it home for your mother in a small gift bag. You don’t have to eat right away, just use fun at the moment when you need to pacify overexcited guests.
Sweets
There is no consensus here either. Of course, all the beautiful photos of children's birthdays feature breathtaking cakes with custom fondant. They are not only beautiful, but also tasty, with natural dyes, with low-fat yogurt instead of cream, etc.
My ideas are for ardent opponents of such cakes. And in general, any products with cream at children's parties.
Casserole with sour cream
Naturally, it is prepared for very young guests (2-3 years old). Instead of cake layers there are layers of casserole. Cream - fresh sour cream with sugar. Decorations: fresh berries and colored sprinkles.
Children are always non-standard individuals. Typically they are:
- prefer sweets to other foods;
- delighted with the beautiful food, which is like something out of a fairy tale;
- they love to have fun and learn new things more than to eat;
- won't pretend to like something if they don't.
Based on these points, we will create a menu for a children's birthday party.
Of course, parents and other adult family members want, first of all, to feed the child healthy and nutritious food, and sweets only after that. And this also has its own conditions, because no one will deny that food should be:
- from quality products;
- if possible, not fried;
- with a minimum amount of different spices.
In addition, when children gather in a group, they will not behave as adults do in such situations: talk peacefully (or not so peacefully) while serving each other the dishes that are on the table. Because of this, it is best to serve food that you will treat your little guests to, dividing it into portions. Menu for a children's party with photos
Children's holiday menu recipes
Pizza for childhood
Pizza is perfect for the main course! Is there really anyone who doesn't like pizza? It is unlikely that there will be such people! Therefore, pizza is the best option for a children's birthday. It can be cut into all sorts of pieces and then distributed to the children in whatever way they want. Vegetarian pizza may be a good option. She must be:
- without mayonnaise;
- with good quality cheese;
- with colorful vegetables.
That being said, if you have organizational skills, making pizza with your kids would be a great idea! Most likely, little cooks will get dirty on themselves, so you should notify your parents about cooking and stock up on small aprons.
children's party menu at home
The impressions after such a master class will be indelible! So:
Of course, what the child made himself, he will eat with pleasure.
And an excellent solution would be small pizzas that look like flowers! They look impressive, and are also a size suitable for children's hands. To find out how to cook such a delight, you need.
A la pizza
Many children love pasta. And you can also make portioned pizzas from them! This dish looks like pizza because of the cheese and vegetables, and not because of its preparation, but it tastes very similar! The preparation is as follows:
All this must be done without slowing down so that the cheese can melt from the hot spaghetti and make the dish undivided.
In this version of pizza, you should use fully prepared products, since the formed dish will not be subject to heat treatment:
- fried or boiled mushrooms;
- sausages cut into mugs or boiled sausage cut into thin strips;
- pickled cucumbers (you can use baby cucumbers) and everyone’s favorite corn;
- rings of tomatoes (cherry ones will look good) and sweet peppers.
Baked vegetables in a pot
Not at all difficult to prepare. At your discretion, you can bake vegetables with or without meat. But the design should be as unusual as possible! Form the dough into a circle and thin sausages - this will be an octopus, which should be used as a lid. For such a dish it is better to use small pots - it is unlikely that children will eat everything. This food serving option is perfect for the Sea Pirates holiday theme.
Another option for decorating baked vegetables is with cream cheese sauce. You can lay out the top in the form of faces made from fresh vegetables - here you should try and use your imagination. To ensure that your art remains the way you intended it, you should decorate the finished dish.
Garnish and sausages
Definitely, the side dish also needs to be made festive. For example:
- deep-fried potatoes;
- colored pasta;
- boiled corn and green peas from a jar;
- mashed potatoes.
To make it interesting, we don’t just boil the sausages, but serve them in the form of octopuses. Making them is very simple, you just have to look at the photo. Of course, you need to buy the highest quality and freshest sausages!
Mashed potatoes
Basically, children love mashed potatoes. And if it is prepared according to all the rules with good butter and natural milk, then even more so. And of course, it also needs to be presented beautifully and creatively!
Vegetable trains
A good idea might be to cut bell peppers into train trailers. Children are unlikely to eat the trailers themselves, but it doesn’t matter - after the holiday, use them for cooking or.
Fly agaric eggs
Such “fly agarics” can be served either on skewers or simply placing them on a plate, as an independent dish or as a decoration for mashed potatoes or the same trains. To make these mushrooms for children, quail eggs would be preferable - they have more benefits and look more childish.
Tartlets with filling
There are a myriad of fillings for these dough baskets, both sweet and savory. The most important thing is that the dough in the tartlets is very tasty and tender. Here is the link to an incredible assortment of fillings -!
Children's sandwiches
There is plenty of room for your imagination to run wild here! But for the sandwiches to be beautiful, you need to cook them slowly and carefully.
Let's consider those types of canapés that children are likely to like. A good option would be to place the sandwiches separately as a buffet.
Ladybug sandwich: loaf, spread, lettuce, cherry tomatoes, black olives. The spots on the back are also from olives.
This option is best offered to older children to ensure they don't drop the food.
Sandwiches in the shape of hearts will be wonderful for a little princess's birthday. Girls will appreciate it!
Sandwich boats
These boats are just super!
Option 1: Cut the cucumbers in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scrape out the pulp and fill the cucumber with the prepared salad (at your discretion). Use a vegetable peeler (or a grater with the appropriate side) to cut a whole cucumber into thin slices. After this, we attach the sail slices to the base of the boat with skewers. These boats look great!
Option 2: Here you need bread with a dense texture. Butter is spread on it, cheese is on top, and red fish is on it. We attach the sails from cheese to skewers.
You can also put a cheese and sausage plate on the table, where the products will be laid out in the form of an animal or something else on the theme of the holiday. Of course, parents who care about their children should carefully choose cheese and sausage for their child. And, of course, this idea is not suitable for kids.
Original cheese plate
You can build more than one of these Christmas trees using different types of cheese. But keep in mind that children do not always like cheese, so don’t go too fast if your holiday is for younger children.
Layered salad with mice
The layered salad will also be interesting for children, and we will also decorate it in a childish way! You can lay out any salad that is laid out in layers in the form of a cheese head - just keep in mind that all products must be suitable for children. And mice of different sizes will delight your guests!
Fruits for children's birthday
Serving sweets requires special care. After all, it is a well-known fact that children have a special place with sweets. No one will argue that fruits are much healthier than cake, pastries and other industrial sweets. And beautifully presented fruit makes you want to try it faster.
Bananas in the form of pirates. You can make a bright bandage from large paper napkins or 
small pieces of thin fabric. Draw faces, eye patches and various facial hair with a marker. This pattern will be absolutely safe - because it will be on the peel.
The theme with pirates is the simplest, because almost everything can be played out in it.
The following games can be used for competitions:
- draw an SOS signal on the surface strewn with semolina (as a rule, this idea goes well);
- picking bananas tied to a “palm tree” (without hands) so as not to starve on a desert island;
- look for treasure in a bowl of flour, semolina (or something else suitable for this, use your wits).
Homemade ice cream for the children's table
Making your own ice cream requires a little work, but the results are worth it. There are also different options for decorating it.
A butterfly-shaped cake would be perfect for this scenario. The base should be cut out of a sponge cake, covered with your favorite cream on top and various fruits should be beautifully placed on it. Very bright, beautiful and original!

Modern parents prefer to celebrate their children's birthdays in a cafe, but even at home you can create a unique festive atmosphere. It is possible to make an inexpensive menu for a children's birthday at home with a minimum of effort. The main task is to decorate dishes in such a way as to whet the appetite.
Menu for a child's birthday
It is worth thinking about the menu for a children's birthday in advance - there should not be too many appetizers and main hot dishes, but there should be enough to feed all the guests. It is worth including original snacks, healthy vegetable salads, easy-to-eat canapés and tartlets in the children's birthday menu. You need to be imaginative when it comes to decorating children’s food and giving it a festive mood. Drinks you can serve are compotes, sweet tea and plain still water.
For a year
Parents are wondering what menu to provide for their 1 year old child’s birthday. Due to the small age of the birthday boy, you shouldn’t be too concerned about this issue - a buffet table with children’s curds and fruit purees will do, which invited parents will be able to feed babies up to one year old. The menu will look great with assorted fruits, children's cookies, and packaged juices for kids with straws. As a main dessert, you can serve a home-baked sponge cake with cake layers coated with baby cottage cheese.
2 years
When it comes to what to prepare for a 2-year-old child’s birthday, you should exclude salty and fatty dishes seasoned with mayonnaise. Spicy snacks, smoked meat, and fruits with seeds are not suitable for children. An approximate menu for two-year-olds will look like this:
- vegetable salad with carrots and raisins;
- mashed potatoes with hedgehog cutlets;
- snack crackers with cottage cheese and tomatoes;
- apples in soft caramel;
- special children's juices or compotes.
5 years
At the age of five, it is already easier to choose dishes for a child’s birthday, because almost all products are allowed for children. The best ingredients for appetizers, canapés and sandwiches are boiled chicken, lean beef, and nuts. It is good to serve rice, potatoes, and pasta as a side dish. A sample menu for the birthday of a five-year-old child would look like this:
- potato and meat casserole;
- vegetable salad of tomatoes, cucumbers, corn and sour cream;
- homemade strawberry soufflé;
- carrot drink with orange.

How to set the table for a child's birthday
An important element is setting the table for a child's birthday. It is worth doing without lighted candles, fresh flowers with a strong aroma and easily breakable dishes. It’s worth making snacks that are easy to eat with your hands or a fork without a knife, without decorating them with small details. A buffet table set against the wall is ideal. Serve sandwiches and canapés on large trays, and leave room in the room for outdoor games.
Decoration of children's dishes
An important part of the holiday menu is the decoration of children's dishes. It’s good to decorate sandwiches and tartlets with funny faces, animal faces or flowers. Salads should be decorated with strips of vegetables in the form of fireworks. Mashed potatoes can be tinted with beets or spinach and placed in the shape of a house or a car. If you have pastry umbrellas at your disposal, be sure to decorate the dessert bowls with them.
Decorating a children's table
Don’t lose sight of the design of the children’s table, which determines the mood of the holiday. Here are some ideas for a children's table from experienced mothers:
- use a beautiful tablecloth with cartoon characters and the same napkins;
- decorate disposable dishes with colored confetti, or serve all dishes in edible dishes - tartlets, on potato slices;
- decorate the table surface with scattered candies, place a vase with lollipops;
You can prepare a wide variety of snacks for a children's birthday party. When choosing recipes, you should combine fruit, vegetable and meat dishes.
The main emphasis in recipes for children's snacks is on the design of the dishes. You can make sandwiches with images of cartoon characters, food in the shape of birds and animals. It's worth trying a variety of recipes. After all, children love the unusual presentation of food. You can use your imagination and experiment by adding your own ideas to the recipes.
Simple snack recipes will help you set a festive, unusual and tasty table for the birthday boy and his friends.
Children's snacks should be healthy. Avoid using fatty and unhealthy foods when preparing snacks for your children's birthday party. It is not recommended to offer children specific delicacies that they have not yet tried - some seafood, cheeses, meat and fish delicacies.
