Literally translated "sandwich" means "bread and butter". However, in the modern world, this concept has gone far beyond such a simple recipe. To prepare all kinds of sandwiches, such a huge variety of products are used that it is impossible to list them all.
As for preparing a festive table for a children's birthday, sandwiches will be very appropriate here, and with the right approach to choosing products they will be appreciated by children - that is, there will not even be crumbs left of them.
Preventing a sandwich from falling butter side down
General rules when choosing products for children's sandwiches
1) Do not use mayonnaise, ketchup, sausage, canned fish and meat, salt, sugar, pepper and other hot seasonings in significant quantities.
2) When choosing bread, it is advisable to give preference to varieties made from wholemeal flour - they are much healthier in terms of vitamin and mineral composition, as well as other healthy properties. We should also not forget about the benefits of rye bread and its reduced calorie content.
3) Don’t forget about the beautiful design of the sandwiches: to a large extent, an attractive appearance will guarantee success for a child. In order to decorate this dish, you can use one or two products with bright colors: tomatoes, carrots, sweet peppers (yellow, orange or red), herbs, fruits.
4) The sandwich ingredients should not crumble, otherwise there is a very high probability that as soon as the child starts eating, they will instantly end up on the floor. In addition, it is very undesirable for the filling to drip or run off the sandwich.

Sometimes parents just have to try so hard to attract the attention of their capricious child to food. Various tricks and persuasion are used, but in fact the simplest method is literally on the surface - you need to decorate the dish so that it arouses the baby’s interest and literally asks for the child’s mouth. Sandwiches for children are perfect for this occasion, as they provide an endless field for imagination and the most daring experiments.
When creating sandwiches, you can implement almost any idea if you approach the process creatively, and a wide variety of characters can appear on an ordinary piece of bread - from cute animals and funny faces to cartoon characters. Don't think that creating beautiful children's sandwiches is an impossible task that requires certain skills. There is absolutely nothing complicated in cutting out various shapes from vegetables, fruits, eggs and other products and their subsequent arrangement. And if you involve your little helpers in the task, the process will go even faster, turning cooking into an exciting activity for kids.
Many parents know how difficult it is to instill in their children a love of healthy foods, and in this regard, sandwiches for children can come to your aid. Even the most avid opponents of vegetables are unlikely to refuse sandwiches with delicious faces carved from cucumbers, tomatoes or radishes. To make sandwiches a truly healthy snack, use whole grain bread, bran bread or cereal crispbread, and avoid using mayonnaise. Sandwiches for children can also become a real decoration for a children's party - for example, you can prepare appropriately decorated sandwiches so that they resonate with the color scheme or theme of the event. Don’t forget to serve sandwiches on a “cushion” of lettuce leaves - this is not only beautiful, but also useful for teaching children to eat greens: the kids won’t even notice how, together with the cheerful sandwiches, they will sweep away everything that was on the plate.
The simplest option for children's sandwiches is to place funny faces on slices of bread. To do this, place a slice of cheese or ham on a piece of bread, and cut out the necessary parts from cucumbers, tomatoes, bell peppers or radishes. To make the eyes more expressive, use black peppercorns or olives. Complete the face with a fun updo of greens, lettuce, shredded carrots or grated cheese.
Similar sandwiches can be made not only from vegetables, but also from fruits. To do this, grease round crispbread with cream cheese or curd mixture and form a face, where bananas and blueberries will be the eyes, almonds will be the nose, and an apple slice will be the smile.
In the same way, you can prepare sandwiches with images of animals and people. For example, to make a sandwich in the shape of an owl, place a slice of cheese on toasted toast, make eyes from circles cut out of a boiled egg, complementing them with rings from olives, and then cut out wings from halves of a cucumber slice, a beak from a carrot, and paws from olives. . Such a delicious bird will fly into your baby’s mouth!
You can make the cutest kitten using bread, a slice of cheese and several types of sausage. The kitten's face is made of cheese, olives, olives and bell peppers, and the mustache of green onions completes the image.
Using similar ingredients, you can build a monkey on a sandwich with its tail caught on a branch, using a crispy straw as a branch. This unusual rendition of the sandwich will cause a lot of positive emotions not only in children, but also in adults.
The same ingredients make the king of beasts no less impressive, sitting pompously on the sandwich. A bright mane cut from bell pepper will saturate the baby’s body with vitamin C.
As you can see, from such simple ingredients you can make a wide variety of characters that will delight the younger generation. From the products at hand, you can collect butterflies, bunnies, elephants, hedgehogs, penguins, fish, birds and funny people on children's sandwiches.
If your goal is healthy sandwiches for children, the same characters can be made by replacing regular bread with whole grain bread and using cottage cheese instead of cheese. This snack can become a complete nutritious breakfast for a growing body.
If you don’t know how to surprise a crowd of kids for the holiday, prepare bright, juicy sandwiches with ladybugs. To do this, put half a cherry tomato on each sandwich, make legs and a face from olives, and eyes from mayonnaise or cream cheese. The black spots on the backs of insects are made from finely chopped olives. Ladybugs can be placed on bread with cheese or on crackers spread with cream cheese. Don't forget to add dill or parsley to your sandwiches. You can be sure that young gourmets will certainly appreciate such a fun, appetizing snack.
New Year's holidays are a great reason to make sandwiches for kids with Christmas trees, Christmas balls, snowmen and New Year's characters. In this case, you should take traditional winter colors as a basis - white, red and green. An excellent option for healthy children's sandwiches in this case are pieces of whole grain bread greased with cream cheese with Christmas trees made of thin slices of cucumber laid out on them, which are decorated with “balls” of red bell pepper. A slice of bread can also be laid out entirely with strips of cucumbers and decorated on top with a Christmas tree cut out of Adyghe cheese or mozzarella.
If your child loves boiled eggs, please him with sandwiches with funny mice. They can be made from halves of boiled eggs, inserting radish circles in the form of ears into them. The eyes are made from black peppercorns or olives, the nose is made from carrots, and the antennae are made from green stems.
You can also depict neutral compositions on children's sandwiches - for example, houses or flowers. A variety of vegetables will help you make these designs on sandwiches bright and appetizing.
Bear sandwiches can be an excellent hearty snack for kids. To do this, spread square slices of bread with peanut butter or jam and make faces with raisins, peanuts and banana pieces.
You can also put the faces of other animals or funny faces on these sandwiches. For example, place eyes made from sliced bananas and a smile made from peanut kernels on a slice of bread spread with peanut butter.
By adding carrots and olives to the same ingredients, you can get adorable bunnies on your sandwiches. Add figuratively cut carrots to the sandwiches, and even the most capricious kids will gobble them up in one sitting, imitating the bunny.
If your baby is not “childishly” hungry, prepare him an impressive-sized hamburger in the shape of a funny monster. To make this, you will need cream cheese or slices of regular cheese, ham and lettuce - all of these ingredients must be placed between two halves of a hamburger bun. The composition will be complemented by a casually hanging tongue in the form of a thin slice of pickled cucumber, cut lengthwise, and eyes made of olives with pieces of carrots. The eyes should be secured in the bun with toothpicks.
Of course, these are not all ideas, and you can come up with your own versions of children's sandwiches, turning a snack or breakfast into a real holiday for the kids. Try to involve the younger generation in the process of creating sandwiches - this will not only help instill in children a love of cooking, but will also help lay the foundations of a healthy diet.
Sandwiches for children are always fun, tasty and exciting, so take the time to design sandwiches for your little ones, and their happy smile will be the best reward for you! Bon appetit!
