...or if they have tomato sauce available, they may change their minds.... lol (assuming it's their choice to be vege, not their parents' choice!)]]> Wed, 12 Jan 2011 20:45:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=37431&PID=1238501&title=2-yo-birthday-party#1238501 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=37431&PID=1238472&title=2-yo-birthday-party#1238472 Author: AandCsmum

Thanks guys.

Mum said cherio's, I'd totally forgotten about them!

He's pretty much no go on most foods. Which rules out things like popcorn.

I think I'll go with T's idea of dropping the cupcakes & put cherio's in their place. Cooper & his vege pal can just miss out on them.]]> Wed, 12 Jan 2011 20:29:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=37431&PID=1238472&title=2-yo-birthday-party#1238472 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=37431&PID=1238189&title=2-yo-birthday-party#1238189 Author: busymum

Your menu sounds great, not too over-the-top and a 2yo will have little understanding anyhow. I'd actually consider dropping the cupcakes and bringing the birthday cake out right away as some little kids take a while to eat while others will lose interest and run off and play. Cupcakes + cake will probably be too filling.]]> Wed, 12 Jan 2011 14:41:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=37431&PID=1238189&title=2-yo-birthday-party#1238189 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=37431&PID=1238143&title=2-yo-birthday-party#1238143 Author: kiwisj

Likewise, unsure what's on your no-go list but I did similar to you plus savoury muffins (veges, no cheese). My 2yo's party was late afternoon though I and I wanted to have enough food not to have to bother with tea after (for my DS).]]> Wed, 12 Jan 2011 13:35:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=37431&PID=1238143&title=2-yo-birthday-party#1238143 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=37431&PID=1238085&title=2-yo-birthday-party#1238085 Author: AuntieSarah

I've been thinking about this too. Your menu sounds good to me, I don't know what yours can't eat (mine is dairy free) but I was going to do fairy bread, iced biscuits, plain chippies, popcorn and fruit. And cake. Mini cupcakes would be good though.

I would add popcorn and marshmallows as possibles - the popcorn is good for many children with food issues if it is plain (one of the few treats allowed at our creche).

oh and cherios if you want a traditional kiwi thing ]]> Wed, 12 Jan 2011 12:38:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=37431&PID=1238073&title=2-yo-birthday-party#1238073 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=37431&PID=1238056&title=2-yo-birthday-party#1238056 Author: AandCsmum

So we are having a morning tea for Cooper's second birthday.

Food ideas, cause it's been a while since I've done a little kids party & Cooper isn't a normal food child (plus I'm too lazy to search previous topics)

So am thinking:
Plain chips
fruit kebabs, pear/apricot/watermelon
cupcakes
then birthday cake.

I don't need anything more than this do I??
