Offering Snacks in a Child Care Center:
* When preparing snack for a child care center you have to worry about a couple things. a. When to have the snack b. What to give for the snack. c. Choosing the snack so that it is correct with the Food Guide Pyramid for Young Children.
Time : When decideing when to have snack you should think about the childrens appetites. The best schedul.ed time to provide snack is an hour and a half after the children have ate a meal.
*You should also plan a snack based on what the children are eating that day. Think about the color of the foods, nutrients, and texture of the meal being provided.
*Avoid snacks that are high in fats, sweets, and highly salty. Some examples of these foods include......potato chips, pretzels, and corn chips
