NPR--menu help for get together

MrsMommyQ

Next weekend I'm having a child/parent playdate at our house. 3 of my girlfriends and their husbands and kids are coming. All the kids are 2 yrs old.

So there will be 8 adults and 4 kids. Everyone has offered to bring something. I'm at a loss for what to make and tell people to bring. I want something that kids will eat and that's easy to make so that I can prep it ahead of time.

Suggestions?

You make the main dish, have one couple bring fruit, one couple bring some veggie or dessert, and one couple bring some drinks. 

I like the veggie mac idea.  I had been thinking a homemade mac & cheese or something easy.
