I always like to provide some healthy alternatives as well as the normal junk food...
Fruit cut up - whatever you can get cheap
Same with raw vegetables with a dip,
Rice crackers and hummus
Cheese and pineapple on toothpicks
Cheerios and tomato sauce
Fairy bread
Mini muffins and cookies with icing and 100s and 1000s on top

My son loves those little skinless cocktail franks. If you get little dinner rolls, they can have mini hot dogs maybe with some grated cheese.

for DDs birthday party i made a few things 2 of them that went in a flash and loved by the kids and adults were mini pizzas and sausage rolls.
the sausage rolls i buy sausage mince and add an egg, tomato and BBQ sauce, grated carrot, and celery. then make little ones with puff pastry.....simple and noice :yes:
mini pizzas i was going to make the bases from scratch but ran out of time and used English muffins and then just topped them with what ever pizza topping i thought everyone would like

We always do fairy bread here too (mainly cause the dads complain if we don't) and I do sausage rolls too but i cheat and use the cheap (coles) thin sausages and peel them then stretch them across 1/2 of a piece of puff pastry, for the kids i leave them as is but sometimes for DH I'll add cheese and sweetchilli or mushrooms (or whatever else is on hand) sauce which is yum (I usually get compliments on them as they are home made - but soooo easy)
skinless mini hot dogs are great too.
Next time I am going to try some of the things in the deceptivley delicious cookbook too to get some healthier stuff out there.
