She Added Salt

blog5This is the healthy snack provided to preschoolers at a local school. It’s a small cup of cucumber slices with a carton of milk. Snack time comes near bus time so I guess the fact that this whole snack is only a little over 100 calories does not matter much.

What I liked was the part where the teaching assistant went around the room with her salt shaker, adding salt for students who requested it. Almost all the students wanted salt. Healthy lunches and snacks tend to omit the salt, but if you want four-year-olds to chow down on cucumber slices, a salt shaker’s a great idea.
