Two Week Menu Plan
for
a Childcare Program
When preparing my menu plan I try to keep the children's likes and dislikes in mind. Alternate choices should be provided to allow for a child's dislikes. Children should be encouraged to "try" first! We have a three bite rule at our house! All children must have at least 3 bites of any one thing on their plate - once they have started they usually just gobble it all down! TIP OF THE DAY: DIP, DIP AND MORE DIP! I have found that if there is a dip provided..kids will eat anything!
