• The Backyardigans always ends with snack time. Time your party around the mid afternoon so so snack time will be appropriate. Serve pigs in a blanket, a veggie tray, chips, a fruit tray, cheese and crackers, and some pink lemonade or juice boxes. Cupcakes are great too if you decorate each one as a different Backyardigan.

Some parents of preschool age children might not want them to have too much sugar so put stickers, crayons, and bubbles in the goodie bag. Maybe a few coloring pages stapled together with a cover page that says, "Thank you for coming to my party!" to go with the crayons ...and your Backyardigans adventure will be complete!
