Need Halloween Party snack ideas

[princess stich]

I am in charge of the snack center at my DD's 1st grade Halloween party. The students are suppose to make a healthy Hallowween snack. (They just started a wellness program here, and so they are trying to do away with all the junk food). Does anyone have any ideas of things they can make? I can think and find all sorts of unhealthy treats to make, but nothing they can make right there in class. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

If peanut butter is ok - you could make Ants on a Log, or Pretzel Spiders

Ants on a Log are celery sticks, filled with PB and raisins lined up on top.

Pretzel Spiders are two round crackers, spread PB on one and make a sandwich, stick pretzel sticks in for legs and use a little PB to stick two raisins on top for eyes.

DD's day care tries to focus on "healthier" snacks for the halloween party. So we try to do Halloween colored foods. I'm in charge of Goldfish crackers (how easy is that?!?!). We are also doing the orange colored applesauce cups, vanilla yogurt (you can add food dye if you want), raisens, orange slices (real not candy), Halloween pretzels. They make english muffin "jack o' lantern" pizzas for lunch.

My chidlren love to make trail mix or party mix. Let each child add something. Throw in one handfull of candy corn or fall colored m&m's for fun. Most items
(pretzels, ceral, rasins, nuts etc) are heathy.

Witches Brew can be any healty drink with a little food coloring.

Focus on the plates cups etc. Find the best ones you can.


If you have a oven. Make healthy muffins and then lightly ice them orange.

Thanks for all of the great ideas! I have emaile dthe teacher asking about the peanut butter and any other food allergies the students may have. There has been nothing mentioned of this before, so I don't think is is any, but I want to be sure.

Well it's not really healthy but... you could make dirt cups in the class room. Tkae the pudding and scoop it into cups and let them cover it with oreo dirt
and gummy worms. Maybe vanillia yogurt instead of pudding.

I posted this on another thread too, but I am the "fruit mom" at my kindergartener's "Harvest Day" party. I am going to bring fruit kebabs and a super easy and yummy dip. You take one defrosted 8 oz container of Cool Whip (I use the fat free kind) and mix it with one 6 oz container of fruit yogurt (I use Dannon Light N Fit strawberry). You can serve it right away, but I like to refrigerate it so it is fluffier. I am planning on gutting a small pumpkin to serve the dip in.
Have fun at your party!

We did a "pumpkin pinwheel" for Max's treat week. I used sun dried tomato tortilla and spread with low fat cream cheese mixed with a little taco seasoning and some finely chopped black olives. Roll the tortilla up and slice them into pinwheels. Secure with a toothpick and a little sprig of parsley to look like a pumpkin. The kids ate them up!
