It is also a good idea to write the menu on a sheet of paper hung on the wall or chalkboard. You can even make this look like a restaurant menu.

Once you know the number of children coming go through the list of things needed especially utensils, bowls, etc. If you need extra ask friends or family if you can borrow some items for a chicken salad kids cooking party.

    variety of bread products
    3-4 cups chicken cooked and shredded or cubed
    2 cups chopped celery
    1 cup slivered almonds
    4 hard boiled eggs or one for each child
    1 cup chopped pickles
    Lemon juice
    Salt
    Mayonnaise
    Shredded cheddar cheese
    Crossiants one for each child (you can use what every type of bread you'd like)

    Cook chicken ahead of time so it will be ready for the party. If you have an older group of kids who can cut or chop with sharp knives you can allow them to cut cooked chicken, celery and pickles with supervision. If they are too young or you would like to do this step yourself prepare this ahead of time.

    Give each child a bowl. Have each child add about ¼ -1/2 cup of chicken to their bowl, ¼ cup celery, a handful of almonds and a spoonful or however much they would like of pickles. Stir ingredients together. Let children peel eggs and chop them with a non sharp knife. Add to your chicken mixture. Have each child add a spoonful of mayonnaise and ¼ teaspoon lemon juice. Sprinkle with salt and cheese. Mix well to combine. Spread chicken mixture on their croissant and they can enjoy or save until eating time.
