Chicken nuggets small bag of chips cupcakes
Ham and cheese turkey and cheese sandwiches small bag of chips apple slices
Last night of VBS have a cookout/potluck hamburgers hot dogs have church members bring a side
Rice krispy treats, plain chips, animal crackers
Usually VBS kits come with suggestions because you can go SO fun! pudding cups (add stuff to make dirt), decorate their own sugar cookies, fruit, crackers and cheese, grahams with icing, ONE drink option – big thing of koolaid, lemonade, tang for different days OR just water to have nto mess.
Ants on a log it’s piece of celery with cheese spread with raisins on it. We used peanut butter but because of allergies went to cheese spread.
We did walking tacos, chicken nuggets, hamburger, hotdogs/chili cheese dogs, etc. We had a foodtruck theme. We made kool-aid and had waters. We bought cookies and chips, made fries with hotdogs one nught.
Fruit salad, goldfish, chocolate chip cookies, cheezits, brownies, dirt cake, banana pudding, ice cream bar, cheese and cracker tray, chips and salsa and chips and dip. Also I did a snack for Noah’s Ark with graham crackers and let the kids spread icing on top and then put animal crackers on top. It’s fun and taste really good!
Tortilla with cream cheese and strawberries rolled up.. big hit with my kids!
At our small church we did dinner at 5. It encouraged more people to come. You could have members volunteer to make a dish.
Animal crackers, goldfish, freeze pops, sandwich cookies (like Oreos).
Is there a theme for the VBS? Maybe take that theme and run with it. Like under the sea you could do goldfish, jello cups with gummy fish in them etc.
Our church does nacho, hot dogs ,cookies cakes , juice punch kool-aid, chips,Chilli, corn dogs
We did dinner:
Hot dogs
Pizza
Corn dogs
Grilled cheese
Chicken nuggets
Chips were served every night
We did strawberries oranges and chopped up grapes one day, then watermelon slices on a stick the 2nd day, then dirt pudding one day ( chocolate pudding crushed oreos and gummy worms), then homemade chex mix the 4th day
Goldfish, cupcakes, donuts, fruit snacks these are some we just had that went along g with the theme
Popcorn! Mozzarella cheese sticks. Animal crackers. Graham crackers with frosting.
We switched it up and did small snacks with the story it seemed to help keep their attention
little cups of fish cereal m&m’s pretzels marshmallows
Fresh fruit
Veggies and dip
At our church we make it simple & do pre-bagged chips. People from the church bring them in & juice boxes/Capri suns. Super easy & no chance of allergies
Rice Krispie treats, fruity pebbles treats, fruit, cheese cubes, oven s’mores
Corn dogs, nachos, sandwiches, fruit cups, cookies
Drink mixes and flavored water(flavor drops), are going to give you the best value as far as drinks.
We found the Goldfish crackers served in little cups, cookies, and juice pouches went really well.
Wrap wheels
Mix ranch and cream cheese spread on wrap
Add meat and cheese
Roll up
Cut into little wheels
We have found that returning to just a simple snack of cookies works well. Served with cold milk or ice water, no more sticky koolaid!
Our church always does finger foods.
Such as chicken nuggets, ham and Turkey sandwiches, corn dog nuggets, and hot dogs. Along with chips and cookies and caprisuns or koolaid jammers and water.
If you are doing a vbs program they should have a snack book. I did it for years. Theme? There is always a trail mix, celery boats with cream cheese, raisins, gold fish and juice. If it is hot water and lots of it
Apple slices with carmel, tortilla pin wheels, little smokies with bbq sauce, fruit trays
They could make s’mores, hotdogs, maybe hamburgers, pizza night, chicken nuggets and fries, make kool-aid slushees…those are a hit. Brownies, goldfish, gummy bears, applesauce, yogurt, fruit.
Corn dogs, hotdogs, cheese and crackers, fresh fruit, crescent roll dogs, meatballs, pretzels, chicken nuggets, trail mixes, pickles, cookies, juice, ham and cheese sandwiches, pudding, jello, and popsicles. Offer several things every night in small portions.
We did nachos, sandwiches and tortilla roll ups and the kids enjoyed each night.
