Meal times are a very important aspect of the day. Meals are offered using non plastic items and treated as a beautiful experience and time to come together. At a young age, children start learning to pour water for themselves, portion out their own food, treat breakable materials gently, and begin the process of mastering the usage of different eating utensils.
Meals are provided by the caregiver. *Please note any special accommodations, food preferences, or allergies prior to enrollment.
“But we must not forget that one of the most important links between people and food is the principle of pleasure; the pleasure that derives from using the senses but also the pleasure of discovery, the pleasure of manipulating raw materials to create foods, the pleasure of play and the pleasure of company, which at the table becomes conviviality.”
Excerpt from Reggio Children publication ‘The Languages of Food recipes, experiences, thoughts’ by Reggio Children. For more information regarding the ideas behind Reggio inspired mealtimes, please visit The Experience of Food.
