PARENTS: The pre-school years are an important time to help your child establish good eating habits, since you can control your child's diet successfully. At this age, many children need to eat snacks or "mini-meals". They cannot always eat enough food at mealtimes to get all the nutrients and energy they need. Help your child choose sensible snacks- foods that don't promote tooth decay. Books make waiting easier for everyone. Don't leave home without one, they certainly make life more enjoyable. MY WORD: Libraries are a wonderful source of materials for children. It's good for them to know they can go there and help themselves to adventures for no cost.
