| Meals Served Family Style: | ||
| Lunch will be prepared in our kitchen and served family style. They will not be pre-plated. Staff and children together will share meals at the table. Children will learn to set the table, serve themselves, and clean up. Children will be encouraged to try dishes that are new to them. Good eating habits will be discussed at mealtime. | ||
| Parents of infants will need to provide baby food and formula for children not ready for table food. | ||
