Have plenty of activities! Think outdoor games and activities since the party will be outside. A great variety of things to do will help keep their attention longer and keep them happy, too! Oh, and the parents will be pretty thrilled to have a few moments to talk amongst themselves. Some summer BBQ ideas for activities are sidewalk chalk, water games, finger painting, bubbles, etc. It’s all good!

Kid-friendly food! This is a huge must. If you have food that kids don’t normally like (e.g., egg salad) then you are going to have a hard time getting the kids to eat much of anything. Try and have some menu items that kids will love too! These mini hot dogs would be the perfect thing. Not only are they small and adorable, but who doesn’t love a hot dog?
