Kids' Charcuterie Board Ideas
Kids love choosing their own snacks. These boards are colourful, safe for little hands and packed with things they'll actually eat.
Quick answer
For a kids' snack board, include cheese cubes or shapes, ham or turkey roll-ups, crackers, easy fruit (grapes cut in half lengthways for under-5s, berries, apple), veg sticks with a dip and a small treat. Use cookie cutters for fun shapes and avoid whole nuts and whole grapes for young children.
