CACFP Week in Action

This week we honor our amazing Nutrition Staff who make nutritious and delicious meals and snacks for our children.

Here at LCSS, the kiddos are participating in a scavenger hunt where they will have to locate 5 different fruits and/or vegetables that will be placed throughout our sites.

We are celebrating CACFP week by promoting healthy meals and introducing new foods to the children in our care.

Here at Little Folks, we are doing weeklong activities where we use the CACFP resources and some creativity to teach the children about healthy habits for lifelong success.

Antoinette and staff use “Eat Through Stories,” to develop the children engagement, interest, and growing awareness of the link between, food, nutrition, and health.

I am the Center Director of Moulton Head Start in Lawrence County Alabama. We serve 64 children ages birth to five.

At Taneyville, we take many opportunities to ensure children are receiving balanced meals.

At Little Treasures, we believe early interactions and experiences have a strong influence in a child’s brain development. We know the early years shape the way children think and learn about nutrition.

The Virginia Department of Health, Division of Community Nutrition, celebrated CACFP Week with an urban gardening effort organized by Bee Thorp, Brandon Archer and Troyana Cheatham in Richmond, Virginia.

Here in NYC, LKD Nutrition & Health Support Services had a great time last week with Week 3 of National Nutrition Month, as the theme of Learn Skills to Create Tasty Meals coincided beautifully with National CACFP Week.
