Protein: This is needed for the growth and repair of the bones. Protein also provides the body with iron which needed to support the growth of red blood cells and the brain development. Foods which contain protein can include: milk, eggs, cheese, yogurt, meats, fish. If the child 's family was religious so couldn't eat certain meats the setting would have to keep note and provide the child with a replacement so the child doesn't feel left out.
Dairy: This is needed for growth (especially for babies) and supports the bodies immune system and brain development. Dairy foods help repairs cells in the body and the vitamins and minerals in dairy foods help form strong teeth and strong bones. Foods which contain dairy can include: butter, milk, yogurt, cream, ice cream. If a child has a lactose intolerance instead of milk the child would have soy milk to have so that the child isn't left out.
Carbohydrates: This is needed to provide the body with energy. Some carbohydrates contain contain vitamins and fibre. Foods which contain carbohydrates can include: Whole-grain cereals, low-fat dairy, whole-grain bread, rice, potatoes.
Fruits and vegetables: This is needed to help the body eat healthily and make sure the bodies system is functioning properly. For example; giving the children little fruit or vegetable snacks such as; pepper sticks, carrot sticks, strawberries, grapes, melon, pineapple, or many other different types which gives the children chance to explore different tastes.
Fats and sugars: This is needed but only in small amounts to keep your bodies blood sugar levels energy up.  Foods which contain fats and sugars can include;  crackers, biscuits, cakes, custard, poultry. All these foods will help the children maintain their energy levels.]]> 2017-04-03 09:51:53 UTC https://padlet.com/leonie_carty/dtydtoruacpu/wish/164275355 leonie_carty https://padlet.com/leonie_carty/dtydtoruacpu/wish/164277358 https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=eat+well+plan&safe=strict&espv=2&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjA9KCGhIjTAhWLAcAKHcW9CgwQ_AUIBigB&biw=1920&bih=974&dpr=1#imgrc=0cL2YnlCUoANYM:]]> 2017-04-03 10:03:27 UTC https://padlet.com/leonie_carty/dtydtoruacpu/wish/164277358 leonie_carty https://padlet.com/leonie_carty/dtydtoruacpu/wish/164277665 Children need the right nutrition in order for the child's body to function properly and stay in a healthy state. If the child gets the right amount of nutrients they will provide the child with energy to grow, learn and gives them a chance to be more active.
It is important because if children don't get the right nutrients it could cause health problems such as: becoming over weight or obese, some of the health problems which come with having poor nutrition can be very serious especially when the child is growing.
It is good to maintain a good nutrients because the child will have: a healthy weight for their height (body mass intake). A good ability to concentrate (help with cognitive development).

An adult would need to support these needs for the child some of these needs could be:
An allergy- provide a meal which doesn't contain the allergy the child may have, for example, if it was a nut allergy then the adult must make sure there is no trace of nuts in what the child is going to eat.
An intolerance- if the child is lactose intolerant, the setting will give the child something other than milk to drink such as; soy milk or water.
A religious or ethnical reason- the setting would ask the parents what the child can and cannot eat so that they know what to give to the child.
A medical reason,
A pescetarianism- the adult would make sure the child doesn't eat fish or products which contain fish so the child diet isn't changed.
Type 1 or type 2 diabetes.
The reasons above would mean if a child required a different meal plan to suit their needs for example if a setting was going to give the child a different meal to the others to suit their needs then the setting would have to keep an eye on the child who has to eat differently so that the child doesn't come into contact with the food. ]]> 2017-04-05 10:56:12 UTC https://padlet.com/leonie_carty/dtydtoruacpu/wish/164835905 leonie_carty https://padlet.com/leonie_carty/dtydtoruacpu/wish/164837910 In an early years setting adults can encourage children to eat healthily quite easily by:
