Strawberry Yogurt Parfait
This was made by setting up a parfait bar for children.
I set out containers of vanilla and strawberry yogurt.  Graham cracker crumbs, vanilla wafer crumbs, and 2 kinds of granola as an option for the crust.  We had fresh strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, pineapple, and bananas.   Cool-Whip, and honey as a topping. Your guest can just create this by layering a glass or cup with crust-yogurt-strawberries-whipped topping and then repeating layers.
