Salad bars offer a variety of nutritious choices every day and encourage children to consistently build meals based on a foundation of colorful fruits and vegetables. Here’s a short video for you to learn more about the salad bar and how it will be operated. |
Please also review the five Salad Bar rules with your child at home. Click here to watch a short video introducing the salad bar rules with your child.
- Fill at least 1 square with FRUITS or VEGGIES
- Take what you can eat
- Respect your friends
- Respect the food
- Try something new
To successfully implement the salad bar at Eagle View, we need parent volunteers for at least the first three days of the salad bar! If you want to volunteer at the salad bar, please sign up using this signup genius link.
 You want your children to do what they’re supposed to do. But yelling, begging, bribing, and punishing don’t seem to motivate long-term responsible behavior. In this workshop, you'll learn the real reason kids don't listen (it's not what you think!) and how to handle their lack of cooperation effectively and respectfully. Plus, you'll learn specific tips for fostering internal motivation so your children will make responsible decisions, even when you're not there to remind them. Click here to register for this free event.
