Food is a big part of our lives; it's a topic of conversation, a point of celebration and a way to connect with one another. It is important to recognize that how educators talk about food and bodies in early years can profoundly impact children's lifelong relationship with food. Join us as we explore food neutrality in early years settings and how to help children become food explorers, engaging with and enjoying a variety of foods.
