[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an issue with the morning and afternoon snacks served to my almost 4 year old at daycare/pre-school.  Things like cheez-its, nilla wafers, breakfast bars and little to no fruits or veggies.  I've starting sending alternative food for him but feel conflicted that he's being made to have something different than the other kids and the other kids aren't getting healthier foods to eat.

If you were a parent in his class (there are less than 10 kids), what would you think if another parent reached out to share responsibility of sending better snack foods for the class?[/quote]

First, I would find out why the snacks changed.

I had a kid years ago who couldn't have a lot of those snacks. We never did pinpoint the issue, whether it was dyes or what.   I sent what he could have, and that's what he ate.

If at least half the parents were on board I would gladly assist with providing snack.

Your first step though, should be to talk to the center.[/quote]
