MITI NEWS: New Healthy Eating Program We work hard to bring new programs to our children everyday. Starting on May 6th, 2009 we will be introducing a new workshop entitled “Eat Right, Think Right”. This will focus on getting your kids to start thinking healthy with their food choices.

As a parent and child care provider, I know good food and nutrition are important for your child. That is why I have chosen to participate in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP). The CACFP is a program provided by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).  CACFP has created a Menu Planning Guide booklet. This booklet gives information on meal pattern requirements, serving quality meals and snacks, and tips on menu planning and grocery shopping for your child. It also contains a set of eight tear-out recipe cards.
