School Lunch for Children

       School Lunch
                          What do you think about school lunch?
      (You have a voice leave a comment below, tell me what you think).

   Hello, my name is Janine and the topic today is about school lunches. As a fellow parent I worry if my children are getting enough nutrients. Many ask if school lunches are healthy and are they good for my child's body system? Now in-days there are many causes that lead to child obesity(lack of exercise, poor diet, etc.) and also as a concerned parent I want to make sure that they stay on  healthy diet and keep active. One day as my daughter came home from school, she told me that a boy found a roach in his french fries. I was very disgusted by this. Schools should be clean, sanitary however, not in this case. Statistics show schools often have dirt and unwanted rodents due to the food held there. I also asked her what they serve and she said, "french fries, hamburgers, nuggets and pizza". I was very shocked at this. They should serve more healthier food. Many parents make their kids lunch so why don't you give it a try. Below are some ideas you use:

  • Tuna fish sandwich (whole wheat/ grain)    
  •  Fruits (grapes, apples, strawberry's,etc.)
  • Yogurt
  • Granola Bar
  • Salad
  • Water/Fruit Smoothies/Juice (Preferably v8, aloe drinks)
  • Veggies!
