    I think the shaped sandwiches are neat. If I was 3 I'd think they were great too.

    You can get little silcone christmas shaped ice cube trays at Kmart. You could make mini savoury muffins in them?
    I like the christmas coloured sticks too.

    Those santas are hard. No matter how stiff I made the cream, they wouldn't stay put. The canned cream is useless, unless you lived in oh Antarctica lol....and that's about as far from here as it gets.

    For our kindy party we took a plate that had green and red compartments and just put in them red cherries, cheese , mini pastry cups with salsa, carrot, cucumber, celery , cherry toms and hommus in the middle. It was beautifully colorful and the kids loved it.

    I'd do shaped sandwiches or shaped pikelets if your DD likes them?
    We had Christmas fruit skewers at kindy last year - they had watermelon and green grapes on them and then drizzled with some white choc (you could obviously leave off the choc for a healthy version).

    Thanks ladies. Lots of good ideas there. Yep - she loves pikelets Sangie so I could maybe make cheesey sort of ones to qualify as savoury.

    I made the strawberry santas last year when DD1 had to take a sweet plate. I made mini muffins for the base, and then the strawberries on the top but used icing not cream because yeah, the cream just goes everywhere. They were incredibly awesome (if I do say so myself!) and then DD1 was sick and couldn't go to kindy anyway so we had 35 santas in the freezer for ages.

    Oh I remember your thread about that too LuluHB! Poor little thing! Hopefully she has extra fun this year! I made a platter using fruit in the shape of a christmas tree - grapes for the green, little bit of watermelon and raspberries for the decorations etc. DS didn't even notice it was a tree I was impressed with myself though
