If you want caprese fingerfood style, you can use cherry tomatoes and mini mozzarella balls. Slice in half, and assemble a half tomato with a half mozz ball, a leaf of basil in between , keep together with a toothpick. Half a cherry tomato filled with crab, shrimp, chicken, or ham salad. Homemade garlic bread. I have the recipe for the worlds best garlic butter. A variety of mini quiches. Small sate skewers with peanut dip. Small balls rolled from cream cheese, or better fresh goat cheese with different coatings (Hungarian smoked paprika powder, fresh herbs, crushed nuts... ) Canape and finger sandwiches, maybe with cream cheese, smoked salmon, deli meats ... I don't like the concept of children's food much. I like to broaden the sprogs taste horizon instead of narrowing it down. If you have a variety of food, the kids should be able to find things the know and like, and you can inspire them to try new things, maybe even find some new favourite.
