Snacks for a Kids and Pets Party

At an exciting party like this one, kids may find it hard to stop and eat. Don't worry about fancy recipes. Stick with easy, familiar food they can eat on the go.

• apple wedges with peanut butter
• granola bars
• cheese cubes
• tortilla roll-ups
• cupcakes decorated like cats and dogs

Feeding the kids is only part of the equation at this party. The four-legged friends are going to want to eat, too. Have plenty of water available for them and offer these snacks.

• a variety of dog and cat treats
• homemade dog biscuits
• cat cookies
• if you know there will be other animals besides cats and dogs, have special treats for them, too.
