N.B.
You just need to talk to your provider...its a simple as that.
I am a licensed provider...and in response to others who posted...No, we are not restricted to what can or can't serve the children. There are not any set in stone rules, licensing or otherwise (here in MN) that restrict us from serving cookies or candy for a snack or treat....but we do have criteria if we claim them for that meal on the Food Program. Candy does not qualify...but cookies do a few times a week..there are limits, they won't qualify for an every day snack....but as I said, if you do not claim that snack or meal...there is no specific criteria that must be follow. However, common sense should prevail..for me it would anyways.
I don't have a problem with, and I do, serve cookies or treats on occasion...a few times a month or for holidays/parties, etc.....but mostly here...a snack is crackers and milk (fishys, ritz, cheese its, etc)...if parents have concerns about it I would hope they would ask and discuss their concerns with me. This is my advice to you....talk to your provider.....tell her your concerns
