Happy Meals!

We eat nutritious and delicious meals, and the kids love them!  Menu planning for kids can be challenging. But with patience, patience, and just a bit more patience, I have learned to combine the guidance of the State's meal requirements with feedback from the kids to create healthy happy meals.
While eating this particular meal we played with letters: "C" for chicken and carrots, "R" for raisins, "A" for apple, and "B" for bread.
In addition to improving health, these nutritious meals positively affect the moods, behavior, and sleep quality of the children I care for every day.
