    Mac and cheese from the crock-pot, PB and J sanwiches in little triangles, substitute sunflower butter if anyone has an allergy, cheese sanwiches again in triangles or if you have a theme use a cookie cutter, mini hamburgers and hot dogs.

    How about finger sandwiches (use fun cookie cutters for shapes), some PB&J or just PB or just jelly, cheese sandwiches? Or kebabs with little sausages and cheese bites? Veggies & dips or chips & dips? Mmm now I'm hungry! ;)

    all our birthdays have the same food here: Burgers, Hot Dogs, Hot Links, Carne Asada, Rice , Beans, Potato Salad, Fruit, and chips and dips. Sometimes even a veggie tray.

    You can get the kids involved. We went to a 4 year olds birthday party this year and each of the kids made their own pizza and decorated their own cupcakes. It was lot's of fun. My friend picked up aprons through Oriental trading and each child decorated their own apron with fabric markers and then used them to make the pizza. She used pita as the crust and I think that made it easier than using dough.

    Hot Dogs are always easy, build your own sandwiches, pbj.

    I'm planning to do PB&J sandwiches cut into train shapes (which sounds like a stupid project now that I type it out), burgers and dogs, plus chips/dip, potato salad, green salad for DS party. The menu actually changes very little -- some sort of grilled item rounded out by sides. :)  He's a summer baby and it's what we do in summer for a crowd.

    If my kid reliably ate pizza, I'd do a pizza party. 

    What does your big kid like best?  Is it feasible to feed to a crowd?

    Corn dogs, pizzas, meatballs, butter/noodles, mac and cheese, cheese platters, veggie platters and dip, fruit salad, pasta salads, sandwich makings (make-your-own with rolls and condiments), pbjs, turkey sandos (already made), ham sandos, taquitos, nachos, taco bar (not that my kid would eat it), quesadillas, pancakes (he he), muffins, etc.
    Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
