Why is healthy eating important at daycare?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Healthy eating at daycare is important because it means much more than just filling up: It teaches children to enjoy food, strengthens their body awareness, fosters a sense of community and independence\u2014and thus lays the foundation for growing up in a mindful and healthy way. At the same time, children learn in their daily lives how valuable good food is for their well-being and develop a mindful attitude toward nutrition and enjoyment from an early age. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

For us, mealtimes are precious moments of togetherness.

At the same time, the children decide for themselves\u2014in a way that is appropriate for their developmental stage\u2014whether, what, and how much they would like to eat. In this way, food culture becomes a vibrant part of everyday life and lays the foundation for a healthy, mindful future. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Sustainability is a central component of our nutrition program. We source as many products as possible locally and tailor our meal plans to seasonal offerings.

\n

At Stadtk\u00fcken, we believe that eating is more than just consuming food. We use mealtimes as educational opportunities and moments of togetherness\u2014children should discover food with all their senses, develop a joy in eating together, and build an awareness of healthy eating in the process. Our educators make sure that meals always provide opportunities for conversation, socializing, and learning.<\/span>
<\/span>We teach children about nutrition not only at the dinner table but also in everyday life: for example, the children tend their own raised garden beds to experience where food comes from. <\/span> <\/p> <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n

\n\n
\n\n \n\n \n <\/i> <\/span>\n\n \n <\/i> <\/span>\n \n <\/span>\n \n \n Are the children involved in the mealtime process, and do they learn to eat on their own? <\/span>\n\n <\/h5>\n\n
\n

Yes, the children are actively involved in mealtime, because participation and independence are central elements of our approach. Even during meal preparation, the children are involved in small tasks such as setting the table or choosing a table blessing. Each child is allowed\u2014in accordance with their developmental level\u2014to decide for themselves what and how much they would like to eat, and can serve themselves. We plan meals together with the children and support each child in acting independently. <\/p> <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n

\n\n \n\n \n <\/i> <\/span>\n\n \n <\/i> <\/span>\n \n <\/span>\n \n \n Do the Stadtk\u00fcken daycare centers prepare their own meals, or does a caterer deliver the food? <\/span>\n\n <\/h5>\n\n
\n

The hot lunch is freshly prepared and delivered every day by Porschke Men\u00fcmanufaktur (https:\/\/porschke-menuemanufaktur.de\/), our long-standing partner. This ensures that the meals are always fresh and child-friendly. We prepare breakfast (when offered at the respective location) and afternoon snacks right here at the daycare center using fresh ingredients, so the children can enjoy a varied selection here as well. <\/span>
<\/span><\/p> <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n

\n\n
\n\n \n\n \n <\/i> <\/span>\n\n \n <\/i> <\/span>\n \n <\/span>\n \n \n How do daycare centers ensure the freshness and quality of their meals? <\/span>\n\n <\/h5>\n\n
\n

To ensure that the children can enjoy healthy, energy-boosting meals every day, we place great emphasis on fresh and unprocessed ingredients. The food is delivered directly to our daycare centers, inspected upon arrival, and prepared immediately in the kitchen. Our team not only ensures proper storage and temperature control but also receives regular training on hygiene practices. When we work with a caterer, we carefully review their concept to ensure it aligns with our values. This allows us to offer the children meals that are not only nutritious and balanced but also make eating together a joyful experience. <\/span>

\n\n
\n\n \n\n \n <\/i> <\/span>\n\n \n <\/i> <\/span>\n \n <\/span>\n \n \n What kinds of drinks do the children get at the Stadtk\u00fcken daycare center? <\/span>\n\n <\/h5>\n\n
\n

At our daycare centers, children have access to mineral water and unsweetened tea throughout the day. We do not serve any sugary drinks at all. <\/span>

\n\n \n\n \n <\/i> <\/span>\n\n \n <\/i> <\/span>\n \n <\/span>\n \n \n What does a typical day of meals look like at the Stadtk\u00fcken daycare center? <\/span>\n\n <\/h5>\n\n
\n

The children start the day with breakfast together; at lunchtime, they enjoy a hot meal provided by our regional partner, Porschke Men\u00fcmanufaktur; and in the afternoon, we round out the day with a small, healthy snack.<\/span><\/p> <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
