Sample Menus
What we put in our mouths is so important!
I pride myself in providing great quality foods to the children in my daycare. The children are fed homemade meals every day. Meal plans include organic and non-GMO food. Processed foods are very limited, and all foods are free of refined sugars and artificial food dyes. Our meals are served "family-style", so the children have the opportunity to learn independence. They help themselves to the food, learning portion They love being able to be in control of what is happening in their world, no matter how big or small!
