Some other ideas to keep in mind:
- For class parties: make snack bags or turkey pretzel rods — they’re easy to assemble and a great way to include a little craft.
- For the kids’ table at Thanksgiving dinner: set out a “build-your-own” snack board with apple slices, pretzel sticks, greek yogurt cups, and a pumpkin cheese ball centerpiece — the best part is kids can customize their plates.
- For healthier options: lean on apple slices, greek yogurt dips, and turkey + apple rollups as a better way to sneak fruit and protein into sweet-filled festivities.
