Please do the children of the holiday table!

I saw a little 'face Muchkin vacation last fall, when she realized that was presented to "the children's table." I do it the focal point of my decor, and I recommend the same.

Here are some recipes for the drinks party for the little elves in your life. Software selection and decorating party. Everyone can drink with cream, you put sprinkles on top, candied fruits, cinnamon candies, Christmas "picks", drizzle with (alcoholic)Creme de menthe for color, shaved chocolate, candy. kiss. Tie a red ribbon with an evergreen branch to the punch ladle, surround the base with green and sugared cranberries ornaments or toys.
When it is hot, the sugar cane stick in a cinnamon stick or candy, garnish with dollop with whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles, cinnamon candies, icing sugar, add a holiday "pick", stick a sparkler in each cup and light at the time of presentation.

If it is cold, use decorated ice cubes -Freeze cranberries, small ornaments, mint, something festive and non-toxic in small cubes and add at this time. (Remember that holly berries and all parts of the mistletoe are poisonous), or freeze the same things to form in an ice cream. You can enjoy ice rings for punch for kids - into ornaments, cherries, green is set, all you can make hygienic-enough and not poisonous!

Please make the children's table festive!

I watched a little muchkin's face fall last holiday when she realized she was relegated to the "children's table." I make it the focal point of my own decorating, and suggest you do the same.

Here are some festive drink recipes for the little elves in your life. Choose festive ware and garnish. Any drink with whipped cream, you can put sprinkles atop, candied fruit, cinnamon candies, christmas "picks," drizzle with (non-alcoholic) crème de menthe for color, shaved colored chocolate, a Candy. kiss. Tie a red bow with an evergreen sprig on the punch ladle; surround the base with greens and sugared cranberries or toy ornaments.
If it's hot, stick in a cinnamon stick or candy cane; dollop with whipped cream and garnish with sprinkles, cinnamon candies, confectioner's sugar; add a holiday "pick"; stick a sparkler in each mug and light at presentation time.

If it's cold, use decorated ice cubes - freeze cranberries, tiny ornaments, mint leaves, anything festive and NON-POISONOUS into the cubes and add at presentation time. (Remember that holly berries and all parts of the mistletoe are poisonous); or freeze the same things in an ice mold. You can have great fun with floating ice rings for punch for the kids - put in ornaments, cherries, greenery, anything you can make hygienic-enough and that isn't poisonous!

Whatever you serve, serve it with festive flare, and give it a holiday name!
