[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get the obsession with snacks at the playground; can't kids live without having snacks around 24-7?  Plus, the playground years are so fleeting, not worth freaking out about the concept of eating at home for those years.[/quote]

This is an unreasonable take. Lots of children have feeding problems and eat frequent small meals/snacks instead of three meals. Lots have sensory issues/ASD and can only eat a limited selection of foods, which often includes nut and peanut products. There are far far more children with feeding issues than children with deadly allergies. [/quote]

So note the problem is not only what parents are feeding their kids, but how and when?

Our playground is in between one of DD’s activities and home. We often walk or bike over to the activity. On the way home, she likes to stop by the playground and play. As she’s just finished her activity and biked/ walked and dinner is delayed to stop at the park, yeah, she gets to bring and have a snack.

The no snack warriors are the weirdest. [/quote]
