Many thanks to Kathryn Booth and Katerina McKay for giving us loads of great ideas for healthier snacks at the Parents’ Focus Group last Thursday.  They had a wealth of suggestions for things we might try and Katerina, who is a nutritionist told us what to watch out for and avoid when buying food for the nursery.  Kathryn reminded us about pop corn, which we used to do but haven’t done for ages- we are going to dust off the popcorn making machine and see which herb or dried garlic toppings the children prefer.  Lynn has been on snack for the past 3 weeks.  As a very fit and healthy person herself, she always likes to provide a really healthy option whenever possible.  Today’s snack was delicious melon, cherry tomatoes and cucumber with organic houmous and breadsticks, washed down with semi-skimmed milk or Milngavie tap water. Yum.
