Example menus and guidance for use in Early Years setting published

These will support Early Years settings in England to provide meals and snacks in line with current government dietary recommendations for infants and children aged six months to four years.

Early Years settings may make use of these to inform and help them prepare healthy, balanced and nutritious meals, as set out in the Early Years Foundation Stage framework.

This guidance also forms a core strand of the government’s Childhood Obesity Plan, which aims to improve children’s health and reduce childhood obesity over the next decade.

The example menus and accompanying guidance are available from the Government website and accompanying infographics are available from Action for Children.
