Meal Menu

Designing a balanced and varied menu is essential for providing children with the nutrients they need for healthy growth and development. Our meal menu includes a variety of food groups, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and dairy products. Offer different food options to cater to different dietary needs, preferences, and cultural backgrounds.

We meet dietary restrictions and preferences is important in ensuring that every child’s nutritional needs are met. Accommodate allergies, intolerances, and specific dietary restrictions, such as vegetarian or vegan diets. Work closely with parents to gather information about their child’s dietary needs and provide appropriate alternatives or modifications.

We walk the talk by involving children in meal planning and preparation as a way to promote their sense of ownership and encourage healthy eating habits. At Blooming Petals Multicultural Childcare Co-op, children contribute ideas for meals and snacks, and are involved in simple food preparation tasks, such as washing fruits or assembling sandwiches. This fosters a sense of responsibility and promotes a positive attitude towards food.
