sharonash Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Hi Can you tell me what you provide to eat for snack and tea. I went into a setting today who provided a biscuit milk or water > We provide loads compared to this- no wonder our shopping bill is so high!! We are looking at revamping our snack and tea menus does anyone have one they could share please? thankyou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panders Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I'd say that was rather on the mean side! Milk or water, a dried fruit, fresh fruit and a carb (mini pitta, toast, rice cakes, cheese and cracker type thing, or mini croissant, naan bread) spreads tend to be, marmite, cream cheese, jam, honey. I do sometimes have to remind the staff that it is only a snack and not their lunch to keep costs in order, but I do think they deserve more than a biscuit, which to my mind harks back to pre Foundation Stage, let alone EYFS!

sharonash Posted November 15, 2010 Author Share Posted November 15, 2010 glad you said that my thoughts exactly! We do fruit carbs and milk and water but yes are having to limit it a bit as we are finding the chldren not eating much lunch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynned55 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 We give fruit, milk/water. Fruit is donated by parents, if we run out (which is very rare now but has happened a couple of times on a Friday) then we supplement with a rich tea biscuit. If we give too much then find they dont eat their lunch. We've had pittas/crackers/cheese as well as fruit donated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
