My 5 year old son is having a party in the park. I need some ideas for no fuss, easy party foods or non pary foods. Something where you just rip open the packed and its ready. Finger foods of foods that you can eat without a plate would be good but any ideas are welcome. Not messy or too messy.
I can only think of crisps and breadsticks.

Why don't you give each child a little box of food. You can prepare it beforehand, I got boxes for 10p from the Bakers , made life very easy.That's Numberwang!0

/\ fab idea above because you could then make little rolls, even cold pasta in a sauce (Tesco are selling a set of 6-8 small food containers with lids for £1).
You could at least make the meals a bit healthier so the children don't od on sugar/salty bits"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it may be necessary from time to time to give a stupid or misinformed beholder a black eye."...Miss piggy0 -
