Kid-Approved Thanksgiving Recipes

This Thanksgiving, make cooking for the kid’s table a little easier! We’ve selected a few kid-approved, comforting bites to make sure your meal is two tiny thumbs up.

The kid’s table will be all smiles when you bring over the ingredients to create a Thanksgiving Fruit Turkey. This fun activity will keep little ones busy while you finish preparing the big meal (plus, the result is a healthy snack!).

With classic kid-food roots, these Turkey Tenders from the Food Network are a great alternative to a traditional roast. Coated with corn flakes and baked (versus fried), they’re a crunchy bite that’s a surefire crowd pleaser.

Both kids and adults alike will appreciate these Stuffing Muffins from YumSugar. They’re small enough for little hands, plus they make a beautiful display for your Thanksgiving guests.

Move over, casserole! These Cinnamon Sugar Hasselback Sweet Potatoes from How Sweet It Is are definitely going to make your little ones light up. With a sweet oatmeal crumble topper and a fun peelable shape, it’s a side dish that will quickly become a Thanksgiving sweet potato staple.

A sparkling beverage like this Apple-Cranberry Medley is fun for kids to sip from festive cups or rustic mason jars. With a vibrant fall color, they’re a fizzy favorite that’s healthy, too.
