How do You Make a Daycare Menu?


Creating a meal plan for children is not an easy thing to do. Especially when you have to handle a lot of children with different tastes when it comes to food. Here are a few tips to make meal planning for daycare a little bit easier:
1.    Start the day with a protein-packed breakfast.
2.    Choose the food you know they'll like.
3.    Offer new foods all the time. It may take a few times for the kids to decide if they like it or not. If they reject it the first time, you can try another shot with a different preparation.
4.     4-week rotating menu cycle. Once you build up a menu of different meal choices, you can then rotate them around and mix and match for variety.
5.    Plan for meal preparation time. If you know you will serve a lunch that needs extra time to prepare, you may want to serve a breakfast that is easier to prep.
6.    Incorporate foods into a lesson plan can be a good idea to make the children familiar with foods.
