Nourishing Our Bodies
Snacks are prepared in house each day. It is our job to bring the child around to appreciating this in order to cultivate his or her palate. We may even offer the same ingredients prepared many different ways- steaming, baking, grilled, plain, with sauce or seasoned. Your child will discover different colors, different textures, and different aromas.
- Only seasonal, fresh, and when possible, organic ingredients
- Staff describe the taste of each vegetable/snack
- Talk to the children about their first encounter with certain foods
- The flavor of each vegetable is inherently rich and interesting
