Treats for the children - Preschool

Dear Preschool Parents
It is very generous of you to share treats with the other children in Preschool when your child has a birthday, however....
We have had a few complaints from parents about lollipops put in the children's pockets. Reasons given are:
* Children know they are there and want to eat them straight away.
As often this is the end of the day and dinner is not far away, it
causes disagreements between parent and child.

* Siblings who are arriving at the same time want one as well and
tears follow...

* They are not a healthy option for children: as they get enough junk
food on weekends at birthday parties etc...

* Children themselves know they are there and expect one every day
from then on. They also sometimes try to get them before the end
of the day.

Some alternatives to lollipops could be balloons, non food item treats such as party whistles etc.
If you have any concerns about the above please discuss with me.

Kind regards
Shona
