The first SeasonalLittle People Childcare Menu
Many families have their children in 5 days of childcare for a myriad of reasons. This is not a guilt trip about working parents, it is reality.And so, we need to make sure that our children are exposed to nutrient dense whole food menus, Every-Single-Day.Not just at home but at childcare too.
Childcare centres are under immense pressure administratively and from a budgetary point of view.They are time poor and like most educators, working beyond their scheduled hours.This LPN childcare resource is designed to take the guess work out of the kitchen. To assist the educators and cooks, inspire and empower them to make the best choices in nutrition and menus as well as extending their food education program.
This is not a recipe book!It is a menu plan / recipe guide / awesome-ly delicious program.
