Notes

  • Choose sturdy 6- to 8-inch wooden skewers—shorter sizes are great for easy serving and kid-friendly handling.
  • If using wood, soak the skewers in water briefly to help prevent splitting during assembly.
  • Slice all fruit into similar-sized pieces so they thread evenly and look neat.
  • Keep the kabobs chilled until you're ready to serve to maintain freshness, especially in warm weather.
  • Feel free to mix in other fruits like strawberries or bananas for variety while still keeping that patriotic theme.
  • Follow a simple red-white-blue color pattern for a festive and fun presentation.
