Educators engaging in conversations with children at mealtimes help:

Foster language development and communication skills, as children are more likely to practice new vocabulary and sentence structures in a relaxed environment
Promote social skills, as children learn how to take turns in conversations, express their needs, and develop empathy for others
Provide an opportunity to model positive behaviours such as healthy eating, manners, and respectful interactions, reinforcing important life skills

Programming that promotes healthy eating aligns with the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) by supporting children's well-being and development through holistic learning experiences.

By engaging in healthy eating activities, children develop a sense of confidence, identity, and connection with the world around them, fostering both physical and emotional growth.

Good for Kids can support your service to encourage and support breastfeeding. Below you will find resources designed specifically for services and families.
