At Kids Konnect, we know that what children eat directly impacts how they learn, play, and grow. It’s more than just providing sustenance; it’s about nurturing their bodies and minds from the inside out.
That’s why, at our Kids Konnect Redwood City preschool, we take immense pride in our unique, on-site food program, designed to set your child up for success, both now and in the future.
Gone are the worries about what to pack or whether your child is getting enough of the right nutrients. At Kids Konnect Redwood City, all our delicious and wholesome preschool food is home-cooked right here on our premises. We’re committed to staying away from processed foods, focusing instead on fresh, high-quality meals and snacks prepared with care.
Children at Kids Konnect enjoy a full day of balanced and engaging preschool meals, including a nutritious breakfast, a satisfying lunch, and a light snack during their day. Our menus are bursting with fresh fruits and vegetables, ensuring your little one receives all the essential nutrients necessary for healthy physical and mental development.
Popular on the menu is our whole wheat tortilla with a 3-cheese blend, organic chicken breast, and a vibrant garden salad with fresh berries. Just as delicious, is our whole wheat pasta with hidden spinach and a sprinkle of fresh parmesan cheese, served alongside crisp apple slices. These are just two examples of the tasty, wholesome meals for preschoolers that fuel our active learners every day.
Meal times at Redwood City are for far more than just eating; they are rich learning opportunities. We promote a calm, unrushed, and truly "home from home" atmosphere, allowing children to comfortably explore their food and engage with their peers and educators.
In this supportive setting, children naturally develop a range of crucial life skills:
We believe in fostering a truly positive relationship with food and it can become a wonderful tool for learning and creativity. We might use dried pasta for art projects, making pasta pictures, or explore the textures of different vegetables in sensory bins. This playful approach helps children develop a joyful and multifaceted connection to what they eat.
For our youngest eaters, the weaning journey is handled with the utmost care and attention. We understand that this is a critical stage in their development, and we’re here to support both child and parent.
We’ll work closely with you throughout your baby’s weaning stage to ensure foods and textures are introduced at a pace that is safe and appropriate for them. We follow individual feeding plans for each baby, ensuring their specific needs and developmental readiness are accounted for. Our staff are trained in best practices for introducing solids, focusing on age-appropriate textures, no common choking hazards, and attentive supervision.
For additional best practice and safety advice on infant and toddler nutrition, we recommend consulting reputable resources such as the American Academy of Pediatrics.
At Kids Konnect Redwood City, we’re dedicated to providing a nurturing environment where children thrive, grow, and develop a lifelong love for healthy eating. Our comprehensive on-site food program is just one of the many ways we ensure your child has the very best start in life.
