Hi
we have done fruit kebabs before using straws instead of skewers.
What about using bowls as baskets and asking the children if they could arrange their fruit in the basket and then ask the children to talk about why they put certain fruits together e.g. was it because the colours were nice? was it because this is the fruit that they like? was there a pattern? are there any shapes? etc. As we are always saying each child are individuals and the way they create food is very individual.
Depending on what fruit you are using we do use plastic knives with 3-4 year olds, so that they get the responsibility but not the risk of harming themselves.
just an idea don't know if it will work
