News Update: Classroom Nutrition

Hi Usman!

According to the article "New Rules May Curb Classroom Cupcakes" from the New York Times, "Federal school nutrition rules from the Department of Agriculture approved this past summer now require school districts participating in federal lunch or breakfast programs to come up with a nutritional standard for all foods and drinks [given] to children at school, including those served by parents at classroom parties and treats awarded by teachers as prizes for a correct answer."

Today, I want to provide resources to make following those rules easier and more fun.

Don't miss the post Better Birthday Treats for Kids. It features 4 different birthday treats that have fewer than 100 calories per serving. Plus, kids will actually want to eat each one. These treats are also easy for parents to assemble and won't make too much mess when being served and eaten. 

To make this information easier to share with your audience, I've created a brand-new handout, just for you!

I hope you like it!
