Carrot salad.
Such a salad is very useful, has a pleasant sweet taste and, as a rule, children really like it.

Mashed potatoes for children can be painted with carrot juice, it becomes delicious bright orange and fortified.
Usually, children are laid out hot and garnish portionwise to everyone, because children are embarrassed to take themselves from a common dish.
They try to make the presentation of dishes original and funny, designing a side dish in the form of animal figures.

Sweet is also desirable to cook yourself.
Children like chocolate "flowers" very much.

Finely chop nuts.
Paste fruits on skewers and dip them in chocolate (you can completely, you can decorate part of the fruit or berries with chocolate icing).
Sprinkle the icing with the nuts or coconut flakes.
Cut a large apple in half and stick the skewers with dessert into it.

We prepare a cocktail by whipping a banana with yogurt and adding orange juice and honey.
note
Try not to give children carbonated drinks and dyes, each child may have an individual reaction to them.
Useful advice
If one of the children is allergic to chocolate (the organizers of the celebration must always ask their parents about such subtleties so as not to spoil anyone's holiday), then instead of chocolate glaze, you can make sugar fudge. For this, powdered sugar is mixed with lemon juice (2 tbsp. L. Sugar per 1 tbsp. L. Juice).
For a cocktail, you can use different combinations of fruits and you can even add pumpkin.
