[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have absolutely no problem with a packet of goldfish here and there. But there are days where my child has been given 2 bags of Fridos/chips (3 if they stay for the after-school enrichment). They usually provide one type of snack and offer it to the kids twice (morning and afternoon), so if it’s chips they get it twice. This is happening at least once a week, way more often than they offer something like veggies and dip. They do offer fruit but it’s completely unappealing to kindergarteners next to chips, whole fruit not cut up or prepared for kindergarteners. The staff told my child they had to peel the orange themselves if they wanted it, and you try eating a whole apple with wobbly front teeth. 
Add in relatively unhealthy lunch (pasta, pizza, grilled cheese) and once a week sweet treat/birthday treat, it’s a lot more than an occasional snack. 
And then on the weekend we get to eat healthy at all the birthday parties… lol [/quote]
