Awesome Ocean Party

Two- to 10-year-olds will dive right into this underwater theme. Lure them to the surface with our great food ideas!

From the bhg.com Recipe Center, we've pulled together four kid-friendly menus that can be served at any birthday bash:

All-Munchies Menu

Classics with a Twist Menu

Hearty Bites Menu

Ultimate Favorites Menu

Sea Fare

For delicious food that ties into the party theme, try these suggestions:

  • Sea water: Use blue food coloring to color pitchers of apple juice. Or buy blue-colored drink mix.
  • Goldfish-shaped snack crackers
  • Tide pool: Serve blue gelatin. If desired, put in gummy-fish of a contrasting color after the gelatin is cold and partially set (so the candy doesn't melt).
  • Octopus ice cream balls: Use an ice-cream scoop to form large and small balls. Put one ball on top of the other. Use licorice strings to make legs. You can even make a face with icing or candy.
  • Beginner's sushi: For adventurous older kids, try serving some no-raw-meat sushi from a local Japanese restaurant (order California rolls) or dried seaweed.
