We are having our baby shower in 3 weeks ,Twins !! ,But we have ppl coming from 4 hrs away my partners side very fussy eaters !! and we are making finger foods but i want some tasty easy quick recipes even fussy eaters will eat any ideas ?

It depends on what type of fussy eaters they are, some people are fussy in the way that they will only eat plain food nothing fancy.
So i'd make some basic sandwiches,eg; tomato cheese, chicken lettuce, ham cheese, egg lettuce.
dip & crackers, cheese & meat platter.
hot sausage rolls, party pies, spinach ricotta pastries.
At least if you make plainer food more will get eaten.

Baby Shower Food: What And How To Serve

A baby shower is a traditional way of celebrating the coming (or the birth) of a new baby and welcoming him or her as a new member of the family. They can be hosted and organized by anybody, usually the close friends/group of friends or relatives of the expectant parents. It was once considered improper for family members to host baby showers (because they usually center on the gift giving), but nowadays it is fine for family members to help (and plan) them.

Baby showers are usually held a month or two before the mother's expected due date (some cultures, however, consider it bad luck to hold baby showers before the baby is born). They are intended not only to welcome the baby but also to help the expectant parents by giving them gifts that they will need for the baby.

Planning for a baby shower can be an enormous task. Everything requires a great deal of planning - from the guest list, to handing out invitations, to the decorations, to the games, to baby shower favors - and, most especially, to the food.

Every party cannot be without food, as they are considered as one of the best parts or the highlight of a party. This applies to baby showers as well.

There are numerous types of food that you can serve during baby showers. Some of them are the following:

· Bread or sandwiches · Dessert (cakes, cookies, ice cream, etc.) · Chips or fries · Pasta · Pies (pizzas, etc.) · Salad · Drinks (punch, juice, wine, etc.)

Below is a list of several tips and guidelines on food ideas that will surely delight your guests and the parents-to-be:

1. The baby shower food that you serve will largely depend on the time of day when it will be held. A baby shower that will be held at noon or at dinnertime usually requires a full 'sit-down' meal, while early afternoon or early evening showers can do with appetizers, salads, and finger foods. In addition, the amount of food that you need to prepare will depend on the number of guests you will be inviting.

2. Have multiple snack trays for serving different varieties of food - you can have one with an assortment of finger sandwiches, another with sliced turkey or smoked chicken, and still another with sliced fresh vegetables served with a dip that you can place in the center of the tray.

3. Try to match your food and keep them in-line with the baby shower's theme (if ever there is any). You may consider serving scones and finger sandwiches if your baby shower theme is a tea party. Or, if you are having a nursery rhyme-themed baby shower, cakes and pies that resemble the characters from famous nursery rhyme (such as Humpty Dumpty deviled eggs).

4. Put some 'life' in the baby shower foods that you will serve. Instead of serving your fruit salad in a simple salad bowl, try presenting them in a melon bowl (or better yet, in a baby carriage-shaped melon server).

5. Decorate your food table by tossing baby pacifier candies, chocolate bars, and confetti all over it.

6. Personalize your eating utensils. Match their colors with the color scheme of the entire party. Consider using disposable cups or plates for easy clean up.

7. It is important to take into account the special diet of the mom-to-be, so try to avoid serving food that the pregnant mom herself would not eat. In addition to her allergies and food aversions, avoid the types of food that are prone to contamination and food poisoning, such as soft cheeses, uncooked meat and (most especially) alcohol.

By following these food tips, you will surely be able to pull off a successful (and memorable) baby shower.

Description

Faced with a perpetual mealtime battle with her baby Millie, Jennie Maizels discovered it wasn't that Millie did not want eat, she just didn't want to be spoon-fed by anyone else. Faced with this independence, Jennie Maizels was forced to dream up ideas for foods that Millie could hold, like a mini pizza or a rice ball, until she was able to feed herself, and life became simple again. But all babies go through a stage when finger-held foods are the best way to feed them. Jenny Maizels has come up with a beautifully illustrated book using a wide range of healthy ingredients, cooked and uncooked, hot and cold, savoury and sweet.

Description

It s a bright new world of sights and sounds with these delightful songs written and sung by Hap Palmer. Infants and toddlers will be captivated by these happy songs that celebrate the joys of a child's everyday world and delight in silly fun and the wonder of life. Great music videos feature live action shots of toddlers getting up, eating, dressing, and doing everyone s favorite activity . . . playing! DVD includes the following bonus features: Hap Palmer featurette, printable coloring pages, song lyrics and continuous play for each song and for the entire program. This DVD runs 50 minutes. Ages 1-6.

Some viewers may remember this set of 10 kid music videos as Even More Baby Songs. The title may have changed, but the whimsically catchy songs from noted children's songsmith Hap Palmer remain. From "Getting Up Time" (farm animals and baby awake making their natural noises, and preschoolers imitate their cries.) to "Goodnight Story Time" (an ode to such storybook favorites as Goodnight Moon and Where the Wild Things Are), the half-hour tape follows the day of a young child. "I Can Put My Clothes On by Myself" is a celebration of the fashion mistakes that can occur when youthful independence is encouraged, while "Finger Foods" is a how-not-to of high-chair etiquette. The most rousing song, "What a Miracle," is a grand sing-along on a farm, with Hap himself at the guitar and an audience of parents and children who act out the lyrics. This video won't change your family's life, but it may inspire a round of intergenerational hide-'n'-go-seek or convince parents to let the kids and the dog take a bath (outside) together. And these are good things. --Kimberly Heinrichs
