Small cookies, on the thought that there will be many children in the
audience and a small cookie might be less messy than anything else you
mentioned. Too many crumbs with muffins, IME.

Fruit: Ever hear of Keepsake apples? They are one of my favorite
varieties because they are a small apple‹I don't think I've ever seen
one more than about 2" across. Sweet and crisp.

Or pre-bagged grapes? Put a couple small clusters of grapes in a baggie.

I've got it!! Chocolate-covered cherries! That's the ticket!
