Meal Times
At Playschool, we provide nourishing meals and snacks throughout the day, including breakfast, a morning snack, lunch, and an afternoon snack. All meals go above and beyond the state nutritional requirements.
Mealtimes are an important part of our daily rhythm and nourish our bodies. They offer opportunities for children to explore new tastes, build independence, and enjoy meaningful conversations with their peers. We encourage children to help in the food making process, try new foods, and develop healthy eating habits in a warm, supportive environment.
Sample Daily Menu:
Breakfast: Whole grain toast with jelly, local farm fresh scrambled eggs, blueberries, and milk
Morning Snack: Apple slices and peanut butter
Lunch: Whole grain pasta, marinara sauce, yogurt with seasonal fruit, green beans, and milk
Afternoon Snack: String cheese
