9 Perfect Playdate Snacks for Preschoolers

Playdate at your house! Oh the games, the crafts, the toys, the snacks! Wait. Snacks? Yep, you’ll probably need to feed the littles during their afternoon of fun. And whether your kiddo is the prince of picky eaters or enjoys almost everything you put on their plate, planning a mini menu for a playdate means you need to take other kids’ likes and dislikes into account too. Before the other parents start dropping their tots off at your place, check out these playdate-perfect snacks.
