Reducing food waste at a school party for elementary-age children doesn’t have to mean the children don’t have party treats or fun. Selecting treats children love in single-portion sizes and adding a few party games can make it easy to reduce waste in the classroom. Parent volunteers are still able to help out with providing treats for the children, with less financial burden. And single-portion foods like cookies, ice-cream and cupcakes fit with any holiday theme [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], regardless of whether it is a religious party or a secular one.
Instead of focusing on eating a big plate of food, the children are focused on decorating their cookies and licking the icing off their fingers. Sugar cookies also reduce food waste because they travel home well if the children do not eat them.
Ice-cream cones are another great treat in single-portion sizes for a school party. Regardless of whether it is winter or summer, many children like ice cream so there is little food waste. Parent volunteers provide chocolate and vanilla ice cream, ice-cream cones and sprinkles. Each child gets his or her choice of chocolate or vanilla, sprinkles or no sprinkles. Adding a holiday craft or seasonal game to the day makes it a party.
A hands-on activity for elementary-age children is decorating cupcakes with a holiday or seasonal theme. For this party food, parent volunteers provide plain cupcakes, colored frosting and candies or other items to decorate the cupcakes. Instead of the cupcakes being the desert after a huge pile of food, they are the main event. Children can decorate their cupcakes, sneak and eat the decorations then devour their decorated cupcakes. Websites like FamilyFun offer ideas for simple and creative decorated cupcakes.

“Decorating cookies after baking them requires that you apply some kind of liquid-based substance that will adhere to the baked cookie, or that will act as a glue to attach other items,” says Mimi Cummins, co-author of Christmas Cookies Are for Giving. Cummins recommends using cookie toppings such as sprinkles, colored sugars, non-pareils, raisins, dried fruits and more.
