Surely we opted for the latter.

Ideas to celebrate a healthy children's birthday
To celebrate a healthy children's birthday we do not have to do without sandwiches, biscuits, cakes or pies... on the contrary, we can Do everything that usually happens on a birthday but in its healthy version.
The advice before starting to see what we can prepare for food is that we put everything bright colors to catch children's attention. It will be a sure success.
What is usually the usual thing for a birthday?
On birthdays there are four things we should cover regarding the snack or snack-dinner, since we take into account that after the entire afternoon, the children will most likely not be hungry at dinner time. Therefore, we must Make sure there is: drinks, snacks, snack-dinner and birthday cake.
beverage
At drinking time, the most common thing is that children want soft drinks, but Instead of products full of sugar and unhealthy, we will opt for options such as the following:
1.Homemade lemonade or orangeade. Something as easy as squeezing oranges or lemons in ice water so that it is very cool and adding a little sweetener if necessary (if we notice that it is very acidic).
2.Water. An essential, especially if the children are going to be playing all the time, it seems not but it is water that they are going to ask us for.
3.Smoothies or juices. Homemade fruit juices or smoothies are a very good option to incorporate into our birthday. There are many options for children to choose from. We recommend the strawberry smoothie and the orange and strawberry juice.
Aperitif
Appetizers are a staple at any party, those full plates on the tables that we can reach for throughout the party and enjoy food. On this occasion, instead of resorting to the typical potatoes, hooks, etc... We can do the following:
1. Fruit skewers. We can chop different fruits and put them on skewers, leaving a strawberry as the tip and we can bathe it with a little sugar-free chocolate.
2. dehydrated fruits. Rich and sweet so they will love it.
3. Homemade cookies banana and oats or banana and ground almond.
4. Salty skewers cheese, cherry tomato and ham or turkey.
5. Empanadas cut (tuna, ham, egg...) and home-made croquettes.
Snack dinner
As a slightly more filling food, we can make potato omelettes, tuna omelettes and dishes with cheese, ham, turkey, breasts, tuna, tomato, lettuce and bread on the side, to that each child can have a small plate of what they like the most.
Another very good option is make homemade burgers with vegetables. We just have to chop or ask the butcher shop to chop chicken breasts and some pork. To that meat we add olive oil, chopped carrots and zucchini and they will be ready to grill. With a little cheese and tomato on a plate or between bread, it is a dinner that you will surely love.
And, why not pizzas? Have you ever tried making tuna pizza dough or cauliflower pizza dough? They are delicious, they taste like pizza and they are very healthy.
Birthday cake
Let's make ours homemade birthday cake. To do this, we can make carrot, pumpkin or banana cake that will give the dough a sweet touch without also having to add a lot of sweetener. Or we can also make a cheese or yogurt cake and decorate it with fruits and pastry cream.
