Hi, just in the process of making a weekly menu for parents to see. Just wondered if anyone willing to share ones they have done. Running out of ideas.

Wow Nicole that's a good menu! :clapping:

You can see a copy of mine if you scroll down on the parents page of my www.knutsfordchildminding.co.uk website.

There are some good ideas here -

And there's a new Govt booklet about menu planning for children -

And there are lots of great recipe ideas in the free information section at the top of the forum -

Had a look at the new voluntary guidelines for early year settings from the School Food Trust as signposted by Sarah707. There is quite a lot of information and I have used this to update my menu planning and healthy food policy.

Thank you Nicole for reminding me that I haven't had 'dippy egg and soldiers' for many months and I have added this to my menu!
