Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by preparing the fruit. Wash and cut it into bite-sized pieces, then thread the pieces onto skewers for easy eating.
  2. Next, arrange the cheese cubes, mini pretzels, and veggie sticks on a large platter, creating an appealing display.
  3. Serve the platter with small bowls of hummus or ranch dressing for dipping the veggie sticks.
  4. For granola bars, slice them into smaller pieces to make them more manageable for small hands.
  5. Pop a bowl of popcorn and either place it into snack bags or bowls, making it easy for kids to grab a handful.
  6. Prepare mini sandwiches using slices of bread, cheese, and deli meat. Use cookie cutters to create fun shapes for added excitement.
  7. Lastly, pack all snacks into containers for easy transport, making them ready for team practices or family outings.

Notes

Store leftovers in airtight containers. Fresh fruit skewers can last up to three days in the fridge, while mini sandwiches are best consumed the same day they're made.
