Picnic snacks

My little daughter has a 'picnic day' at her kindergarten each week and she has to take a healthy snack in to school on this day. I could just pick up wholewheat cookies I guess but I'd rather not, well at least not every week!
So I've been planning a few things and here is a quick list of some of my favorite ideas that work:
happy face cream cheese sandwiches (eyes and mouth with raisins)
fruit cut into little pieces: strawberries/ blueberries and grapes work well
cupcakes with chocolate frosting no sprinkles
pretzels
I will be trying mac and cheese (homemade version) and let's see how it goes because it shouldn't become too sticky by the time she eats it.
Will think of more stuff and add on to the list.
