Cypop 2 6.1
 

Plan meals for young children that meet their nutritional needs based on current government guidance and information from carers.

What on earth do I do? It's my LAST question! :banghead:

Hey.

I talked about the five food groups...

• Bread, rice potatoes, pasta and other starchy foods should be offered at each meal time and some snacks, whole grain should be chosen more often.

• Fruit and vegetables should be offered at every meal time and some snack times.

• Milk, cheese and yoghurt

• Meat, fish, eggs and pulses.

• Food and drinks high in fat and sugar should only be given to young children in very small amounts only.

I went into more depth about them but the above should give you a rough idea.

I added additional information of why a balanced diet is important and necessary for children. I also talked about the importance of getting information off parents/carers about their diet, this is vital as some children may have allergies/intolerance to certain foods or drinks. Sometimes parents/carers may have preferences and taking into consideration, the family's religions and beliefs.

Hope it helps.
