Module 1: Creating Positive Mealtime Attitudes Cooking Matters EXTRA for Center-Based Child Care Professionals Module 1: Creating Positive Mealtime Attitudes

Mealtime Rituals What are your Child Care Center rituals around mealtime? What are your personal mealtime rituals? For young children, rituals are comforting and provide stability. They reinforce a bond or sense of identity and belonging to a particular group.

Rituals vs. Routine Rituals create emotional value Routines can contribute to positive behaviors

Kids learn to appreciate new food by engaging in the mealtime process By observing others, kids learn to make healthy choices and figure out how much to eat. Kids learn to eat meals and snacks at set times, rather than grazing throughout the day. Kids learn cooperation and responsibility by contributing to mealtimes tasks. Kids learn the value of eating together, and the conversation helps them develop social skills and good manners.

What Do Children Learn About Eating From You? If this staff member was eating a fast food meal out of a bag instead of the school lunch…. …what message would that send to the kids?

Children Imitate Others Parents Caregivers Siblings Relatives Other children Celebrities and cartoon heroes Model the behaviors and attitudes you want children to follow. They are watching you!

What Do Children Learn About Eating From You? What, when, and where to eat and drink How to prepare food How to serve food Mealtime behavior Attitudes about food

Want Kids to Reach for Healthy Foods? Make sure healthy foods are in reach! Let kids learn by choosing for themselves which foods to take and how much to eat Let them help with food preparation in age-appropriate ways

Feeding Kids Well Takes Teamwork! The children in this classroom are learning that fruits and vegetables make great snacks. Every day this week, the afternoon snack has been milk and graham crackers. What message are the kids getting?

Stages of Feeding: Infant Amazing Progress in Year One: Moves from a milk-based diet to table food What message does an infant get if she’s hungry and no one feeds her? …or if she’s full but caregivers keep shoving the nipple into her mouth and try to get her to eat more? Not all older infants want to be fed! Stand back and enjoy the show! (But keep them safe.)

Stages of Feeding: Toddler Fill in the blanks: A toddler’s favorite word is _ _. What’s required now: PATIENCE PERSISTENCE (keep offering new foods—it may take 10-15 exposures before she’ll eat them!) LIMITS on panhandling, poor behavior at the table THE RIGHT TOOLS for self- feeding Ideas for making turkey & cheese tacos more toddler-friendly?

Stages of Feeding: Preschooler What happens when you seat a kid who won’t eat salad between 2 kids who LOVE salad? Industrious preschoolers like cooking and helping with meal time chores!

Stages of Feeding: School-Aged Child In your experience: What are their friends eating? What food advertisements are they seeing on television? How much time do they spend engaged in physical activity? These kids can often buy their own food – help them learn to make good choices!
