I'm hosting a party for my dd who will be turning 2 soon. I've hired a place for an hour and a half (4-5.30pm) - an hour for play then half an hour for cake and food. I'm arranging the food into party boxes as I have a child coming who is allergic to most foods.
So my question is, should I also put on a spread of nibbles for the adults there? I think I'll take juices and water, but I think if there is food around the kids will want it and I don't want to distract them/cause problems for allergy child.
Also, how acceptable is it to put "unhealthy" foods in the party box? IMO it's a party and I don't want to dish out carrot sticks with hoummous and an apple, I think it should be balanced with some fun.
