Choosing Healthy Menu for Your Kids Party

These days celebrating birthday parties became a tradition and a must to do thing in almost all the cultures. Hosting it with a different theme, conducting different games for the kids, offering party favors are the things which we are very familiar about. So, there is no need of discussing about the things again and again. Instead of offering the same old snacks like the cakes, sweets candies etc., why don't we try some thing different. This thought made me share with you an idea of choosing healthy menu for parties.

Kids are the most rigid personalities as they are pampered by each and every person of the house. They often avoid healthy things since they naturally doesn't taste as good as high calorie foods. Hence parties are the right occasions to make them habituated to certain healthy things. Let us check how.

Nutritious cake recipes: In fact, these things are not generally available in the market. So, you have to take little pain in baking cakes at your home. Check internet for various nutritious cake recipes and make the most interesting out of them. Even though they contain different ingredients garnish them with some attractive things like the cherries and candies so that kids will eat them with interest.

Fruits instead of candies: Instead of offering candies you can offer a lot of fruits to the kids which are presented in a more appealing way. Cut the water melon into the shape of a basket and add different chopped fruits and whole little fruits like berries and cherries. The way you present the fruits should attract the children in such a way that they themselves should come and have them.

Healthy Party Drinks: And finally its the turn of drinks now. Instead of offering cool drinks and beverages it is perfect if you give them some fruit juices. You can blend some yogurt, juices and fruits to make delicious smoothies. Avoid those ready made juices and try to make some by your own by adding some natural sweeteners like honey and Stevie.

Be health conscious while planning the food for your children's party. You will definitely make your kids happy with funny presentations.
