EVERYDAY!
Snack time is an important part of our day. It is usually mid-morning and lasts for 10-15 minutes. Snack time gives us a chance to refeul, relax and socialize with friends or read a book. It is very important that children are provided with healthy foods for their snacks. I have compiled a list of suggestions to help you with ideas.
