What can I do? You ask……….

There are many things that a Parent, Grandparent, Nanny and Teacher can do:

• First and Foremost your job is to make sure there are safety protocols in place to protect the children from harm.

• Make sure the food is handled in a sanitary way, and that proper hand washing procedures are in place.

• Engage children in conversation.

• Describe what children are doing.

• Ask Questions about where food comes from.

• Pose questions to encourage children to talk about what they are doing.

• Make observations.

• Model Positive behavior

• Ask probing questions to encourage children to think logically and problem solve

Follow these suggestions and you will be on your way to cooking with your own Lil’ Munchies.
