Family-Style Dining
March 12, 2013
Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted.

- Have children set the table before the meal and clean up after the meal is over.
- Teachers should sit with the children as they are eating.
- Teachers should allow the children to pour and serve their own food. Young children can serve themselves, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be spills. Young children need to be able to make mistakes as they improve their skills. Help “hand-over-hand,” if necessary, as they learn to serve themselves.
- Have enough food and serving bowls so that all tables can be served at once.
- There will be contamination as children learn to distinguish between food on their plate and food in the serving bowl. Have extra food ready for when this happens, so you can change out the contaminated bowl.

This is such a first world view of family, or community dining....

I love the family-style eating in early childhood classrooms. My pre-K and K-5 children loved to set the tables for snack, pass out the food, and clean up afterwards. I fell all Head Start classrooms should do the same, with the adults, of course, supporting their efforts...much fun and learning can be had by all!
