healthy chicken salad sandwich recipe yogurt image

I'm having an indoor simple b-day party for my daughter this weekend. I'll be serving: 12 adults & eight kids all ages 7 and under.
Here are some maybe foods...
Main dish: Chicken salad or sub-sandwiches & for kids hot dogs or pizza
Side dishes: Macaroni salad, beans, rice, snack platter, chips/dip...
Which foods would be the best to go with?
Any new ideas welcomed and encouraged!
No hotdogs, got it!

Answer
Don't do hot dogs...I'd rather see chicken nuggets and homemade mac & cheese...can do fruit cups or even make layered yogurt parfaits in little cups using berries. (If doing just a fruit cup..add a dollop of whipped cream on top and 2 mini chocolate chips to create "little ghosts").

For little ones...instead of chips...make some homemade granola bars:

1 ½ cups rolled oats
¼ cup wheat germ
¼ cup ground nuts
¼ cup nonfat dry milk
¼ cup melted butter or oil
5 tablespoons honey
1 beaten egg
¼ teaspoon vanilla
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
½ cup dried fruit

Mix all dry ingredients. Mix honey, oil and vanilla into dry mixture. Add more honey to moisten or dried oats to dry mixture if necessary. Press mixture into 8x8 baking pan. Bake at 350°F for 15-20 minutes, cool and cut into bars. (this recipe from healthy foods to serve 2-6 yr olds)

Can someone plese plan me some good and healthy meals for a day?
