Calendar of Closings
Menus are on a 10 week rotating schedule.
Menu items can be substituted as needed without notice.
Salad will be served daily for lunch and supper. Milk and
water is offered at all meals and snacks. Water is available
throughout the day.
These are examples. Themes change on a 2-3 year basis. New activities are added based on the interests
and level of the children attending each day. All children, regardless of age, are invited to participate in
each activity unless age prohibits it-in that case an alternate activity is offered. Specific activities are
modified according to each child's ability and developmental level. The IL state Early Childhood standards
are addressed throughout the day.
Per the 2010 US Dietary Guidelines and the US Adult and Children Food Program, children 12-24 months are served whole milk and children over 24 months
old are served 1% or skim milk. Whole grains are served throughout the day and at least 2-3 times per week. Items may be substituted and menus changed
without notice but will always follow the guidelines of the US Adult and Children Food Program.
