With only a few minutes prep, you can create these Beach Party individual pudding cups. Using teddy grahams, graham crackers and a few candies, you have adorable kids’ pool party snacks for a birthday, beach vacation or even a class party.

Beach Scene Vanilla Pudding Cups

These tasty treats are almost too cute to eat. Turn a vanilla pudding cup into a beach scene complete with a circle float, umbrella and bear laying on a towel above the beach sand. While these snacks are the embodiment of sand and surf, they are best served at a beach themed party or at a pool party as they would not go well with wind and sand.

What kind of food do you serve at a pool party?

For a pool party, you will find most of your guests snacking. While it’s nice to serve things like hamburgers, hotdogs or even pizza, make sure that you have a good selection of individual pool party snacks. That way people can eat on the go or as the sun and water develops their hunger.

Consider the following kid-friendly pool party snacks…

  • Seasoned Oyster Crackers Snack Mix
  • Strawberry Salsa
  • Banana Split Sticks
  • Cantaloupe Sailboats
  • Watermelon on a stick
  • Under the Sea Marshmallow Pops
  • Crab Sandwiches
  • Crab Cupcakes
  • Clam Cookies
  • Fruit Pizza Beach Ball 

Beach Themed Snacks

The end of school is quickly approaching and if you are looking for an EASY last day of school snack, summer party idea, or something fun for a beach-themed celebration try out these Beach Scene Vanilla Pudding Cups.

Easy pool party snack for kids

Ingredients:

We used Snack Pack Vanilla Pudding Cups, make sure you have one pudding up per child/serving. Follow with one Teddy Graham, Life Saver, Air Head Extreme and Umbrella to perfect your individualized beach scene!

  • Snack Pack Vanilla Pudding Cups
  • Crushed graham crackers
  • Airhead Extreme Bites
  • Life Saver Gummies
  • Honey Teddy Graham’s
  • Drink Umbrellas

Where do I find Cocktail Umbrellas?

There are a number of places to find small drink umbrellas. I would recommend hitting the Dollar Tree first, but also look on Amazon, Target or at your local party store.

Directions:

First Take the tops off of your pudding cups and fill to the top with your crushed graham crackers to look like sand.

Place a Teddy Graham onto an Airhead extreme and place onto the “sand.”

Stick your umbrella into the sand with a gummy life saver next to it.

Serve with a spoon and enjoy these cute little beach treats!

Can I make these the night before?

If you want to prep your beach themed party snacks the day before, prep the topping ingredients. Go ahead and set aside the number of pudding cups you need. Crush your graham crackers and store in an air tight container. Count out your number of umbrellas and peices of candy. For 30 beach snacks, it should take no more than 10 minutes prep.

    I want to make these for a class party but want to make them the night before. Anyone had any experience keeping them in the fridge for a while? Wondering how items on top would hold up! Or if anything needs put on last minute.

      I bet you could last minute add the toppings. It should be as quick as 5 to 10 minutes. Enjoy!
