    With the 4th of July right around the corner, I thought it would be fun to share a few fantastic kid-friendly 4th of July recipes from our favorite bloggers!

    I know that we all love our 4th of July cookouts with the classic side dishes, but sometimes our kids aren't so keen on potato and macaroni salad...so why not meet them halfway and serve up one of these tasty treats for dessert?

    These kid-friendly 4th of July recipes are not only delicious but so easy to make that you can even get the kids involved in the process!

    Kid-Friendly 4th of July Recipes

    First up are these super fun Patriotic 4th of July Rice Crispy Treats from Jen at The Suburban Mom. I just love the splash of color and the fun little flags on top!

    These would make a great centerpiece for your BBQ table too!

    I love munchies and this Patriotic Popcorn Crunch recipe by Brett at Mama Loves Her Bargains looks incredible, doesn't it?

    I can see the kids munching away on it while the parents man the grill - or the whole family enjoying their own bowl while watching a movie after dinner!

    This 4th of July Fruit Salad would make the perfect side dish for your 4th of July BBQ, or even just a yummy snack on a hot summer day!

    And now for my favorite meal of ANY BBQ...the dessert!

    This patriotic raspberry coconut cake dessert by Danielle at Simm Works Family combines the best of both worlds: cake and fruit!

    What a deliciously sneaky way to get the kids eat eat more fruit!

      I don't know if Jello Poke Cake is considered 'kid-friendly' but I made it as a joke several years ago, and it was an instant hit with my party guests. Now they request it!
