SCHOOL LUNCH OR HOME-MADE?
Providing heathy meals for children is among a parents’ top priorities. They need regular balanced meals
where they can source the much needed nutrients for their growth and development. When at home,
you can track what they eat and how it is prepared. However, when they reach the pre-school and
school-age, what then? Although schools have cafeteria facilities to serve your kids, is this a wise
option?
Here are a few pros and cons for both cafeteria food and home-made meals:
HOME-MADE Packed lunch
Pros
You are able to track what goes into your child’s packed meals and make sure he or she
is getting the right food that they need. When you prepare home-made food for them
to bring to school, you will feel you are able to nurture them even from afar.
Cons
Morning rush! We have all been in one of those mornings where you scramble around
picking up toast and not trying to be late. This becomes more stressful when planning and
packing a home made meal for your child to bring to school. More often than we care to admit,
we end up with a recipe to disaster, messy kitchen, and late kids!
School Cafeteria Meals
Pros
Perhaps where cafeteria food wins over home-made meals is its convenience. It is
always there, someone else prepared it, and your child gets to choose what he or she wants to
eat from the menu. Most schools also have a wide array of food choices for kids to enjoy.
Cons
You can never know what your child actually puts into his or her mouth. Although
schools have to adhere to regulated procedures when preparing cafeteria food, there is no way
of being sure your child gets fresh, healthy, and clean food on their lunch trays.

we provide them with only healthy, home-made meals when you entrust them to us! We have a menu
