I won't say what to bring or not bring but I do suggest asking the teacher his/her opinion. Some schools have policies on bring in homemade items, etc. also Some kids may have food allergies or other health conditions (Diabetes, Celiac disease) that limit what they can eat. I know it's probably a hassle to take into consideration when choosing but perhap if there is a child with a special food need then the parent of that child can provide something the child CAN eat to he/she doesn't feel left out. My 3 yr old has diabetes and is in preschool. There is also a little girl with a peanut allergy in the class. The teacher just asks parents to let her know if they plan on bringing something and what it is at least 2 days ahead so she can warn us. For me I usually let him have whatever it is and ask the nurse to give him a shot of insulin. Sometimes I don't think he should have whatever it is and I send a special "treat" so he can have something while the other kids have the birthday kid's snack.
In any case, Happy 6th to your daughter! Hope she and her class have fun.

We were only allowed to bring something for the classmates during their lunchtime. Because of this, it was usually something sweet---like cupcakes, cookies or ice cream cups. We'd have birthday napkins also. At the end of the day the teacher would hand out little party bags that I left for the children. The party bags usually contained a few pieces of candy, pencil, eraser and small toy from the Dollar Store. Good Luck!

I sent cookies to school for my son's bday. I asked the teacher what she thought about it 1st. Or you could just send little gift bags with a pencil, a little toy, and some snacks. My son's was easy though, it was near halloween and I could send all kinds of silly things with the cookies. Some parents have sent cupcakes, a small cake. I also sent some juice bags. Good luck.

It depends on their policy. a lot of schools are not allowing students to have too much sugar or bring in sugary snacks. Our district defines this as anything "with sugar as the first ingredient".
If it is allowed, you could bring in cupcakes (also check the policy if you are allowed to have store-bought or home made) Our school district does not allow anything unpackaged to come into the school. (for safety reasons)
I sent in individual snack-sized packs of pretzels for my son's birthday. It's not as exciting or fun as cupcakes but these were not permitted. He told me that the kids still enjoyed the treat.
Good luck!

A cake or cupcakes and something to drink are the standard but I made clam out of vanilla wafers with flavored cream cheese between them (flat sides in) and m&m's for eyes and something to drink (milk or punch) once. They are a bit healthier than cupcakes and the class loved them.

Most teachers prefer one cupcake,
or cookie for each child in the class.
Just check with ur childs teacher
and ask what's apporate for her
class. And make sure there are
not food allergies in any of the children.

now , schools are requesting healthy foods, because of the obesity epidemic. If their school isn't focusing on that, you should be the first one. Yogurt with granola, carrots, celery, pretzels, I know it sounds stupid. What about cupcakes, right? But, if every parent brings in sweets for special days, that does add up to alot of empty carbs.
