The birthday boy has requested hot dogs, pizza, and fries/tater tots(he keeps changing his mind on which one he wants) I also need to feed the parents. So I'm planning on
Hot dogs
Mini bite sized pizzas(like bagel bites sized...but I'll be making them myself)
Fries or tots
Some sort of fruit(most likely on skewers like an edible arrangement since kids love food on a stick)
Tossed salad
A pasta salad
Tray of pinwheel wraps for the adults(mixed tray from grocery store..has ham, turkey, roasted veggies, and roast beef wraps)
I'll also have pretzels, chips and salsa and a veggie tray to munch on before we eat.
Dessert will be cake and sugar cookies for the kids to decorate(train shaped...once again this is DS's request)
What do you think? He wants a train party and I've figured out how I am going to decorate without having it look like Thomas exploded in my house(using a light blue and red color scheme and ordering a printable party package on Etsy) I also will make a train themed cake.

Tea Time for Lulu
I think it sounds fine. My only thought is 4 year olds with skewers could be a bit dangerous.
We did a train theme for my kid last year. I just put some of his toy trains on the tables for centerpieces and made one of Wilton's puzzle cake. This was the second cake I'd ever decorated in my life and it was pretty easy. You can revamp it inyo different cakes later too.
so did I at first!!.
Everything sounds just right for a 4yo. His cookie idea is great!
Good point. If you deep fry them it will be a last minute deal and that is really hectic with a bunch of 4 yr olds running around.
