Daycare Menu Templates
Looking for daycare menu templates? You've come to the right place. We have free printable menu plans ready for you to fill out with delicious meal options. Sloppy Joes anyone? Apples? Scrambled eggs? Ensure your young children are getting the most out of your food program by using these templates to plan your childcare menu. Whether you plan to serve english muffins, bagels, french toast, granola, macaroni, or green beans, you need to make a plan to establish an effective daycare food menu. Keep food allergies top of mind, as you don’t want to offer peanut butter sandwiches to a child with a nut allergy or meatballs to a veggie-only eater!
As a daycare provider, you want to ensure the children in your care not only have healthy options like whole grains, apple slices, sweet potatoes, turkey sandwiches, or cottage cheese (healthy eating is important for growing children!), but also ensure that you employe good food safety measures when providing healthy lunch to the kids. Childcare providers have a huge responsibility and daycare meals are no exception!

What is a daycare lunch menu?
Daily menus are used by preschools or childcare centers to keep track of what is being prepared for lunch, snack and other meals and share those choices with parents. Menu plans can be as detailed or succinct as you like. Some centers may only provide snacks, while other centers will detail the ingredient list for all lunches and snacks provided. You can plan out your day care menu schedule either by day or by week.
Lillio helps centers track more than just preschool snack menus too! You can log activities, sleep, diaper checks and developmental observations easily within the app. If your childcare center follows a state or provincial framework, you can add your curriculum and map it instantly to your early learning guidelines.
