Has anyone celebrated a child's birthday at home? Please share what you prepare for the table. There will be both adult and child guests. Besides the usual Olivier salad, shashlik, and rolls, I can't think of anything else. I need ideas that the kids will eat too (the youngest is 4, the others are around my girls' ages). Please don't suggest ordering takeout or celebrating at a cafe 🤦️
Has anyone's little ones had a sore throat that only hurts at night? They haven't eaten or drunk any… How do symptoms even show up? Could there be some pimples on the head of the penis, or is it an STI?…

Our kids love pizza, nuggets, and mashed potatoes... and fries too!

Kids are all different. My husband's niece, up until about 6 years old, would only eat hot dogs and dumplings. I can check with the kids' parents to see what they like, so no one goes hungry!
I make homemade chicken nuggets and bake potatoes in the oven. Many kids eat crab sticks, cucumbers, and tomatoes.
Little sandwiches or canapés are always a hit!

By 4 years old, kids will eat anything! Olivier salad, shashlik, and rolls are a huge hit. I don't see the point in reinventing the wheel lol. I don't invite adults to kids' birthdays; the table is purely for the kids. Pizza, nuggets, fries, fruit, and cake. We also had sushi rolls last year. The kids have gotten older!)))

Yuliya The kids want the godparents to be there all together. I don't want to do things separately, and two of them already have birthdays on the same day 🙈😁

Iglova Viktoriya I didn't do it for my kids, but recently we were at a party where they had cheese and grapes.
Completely gone.
I think many people also love crab sticks.

I don't know about all kids, but my friends' kids love fruit salads. Like chicken with pineapple or grapes – the kids gobble it up, probably because of the fruit, but it's still filling and relatively healthy. Anyway, we don't do fries, nuggets, or that kind of junk; it doesn't feel festive to us. Everyone eats chicken, or we bake pork loin to go with mashed potatoes. Lots of fruits and veggies, maybe shaped like hedgehogs or something fun – the visual appeal sparks interest.

Kids don't need much, really. Prepare what your child eats and loves first and foremost.

Pizza is a hit! Our kids devoured all the salami from the mortadella. It must have been good mortadella, maybe that's why everyone enjoyed it so much. My son was at a friend's birthday party where they had grilled wings and sushi rolls. The sushi rolls were gone super fast!

The kids ate shashlik, hot dogs, homemade burgers, country-style potatoes, and a "Red Sea" salad (crab sticks + cheese + sweet pepper). There was also a fruit salad. For the adults, I made appetizers: beef roulades (with mustard sauce, lettuce, and pickled corn inside), crispy eggplant rolls, red fish sandwiches (the kids ate these too), cod liver and cucumber sandwiches, and lots of other things! 😁

For the kids, we always make fries and pizza for the table. They devour it first thing. One time for my older son's birthday, the boys rolled sushi. I salted salmon for them, and it was a huge hit, but only with the older ones; the little ones won't touch it. Fruit. Everyone's interested in the cake though! The adults have their own menu, and it doesn't really overlap with the kids' food. But usually, only kids are invited to our kids' birthdays. We might do a repeat birthday celebration for relatives on another day.

We make rustic potatoes for the kids, chicken fillet like strips, sometimes pizza, a veggie platter, and a fruit platter.

Oh, I love baking chicken. The kids love baked potato wedges. I also make different salads, usually two kinds. For snacks, we like crab rolls, tomatoes with cheese and garlic, and cold cuts.
