Healthy, inviting meals and  snacks are an important part of The Happy Land experience. We serve food that is hot, appealing, healthy, and nutritious. Mealtimes and snack times are happy occasions with time for pleasant conversation and learning.

We encourage our children to develop healthy eating habits.  We help them learn about a variety of foods and a balanced diet. We also  encourage good table manners and clean up after meals.

Our center participates in a program sponsored by the U.S.D.A. The  program ensures that all of our children are served healthy and  nutritious foods in quantities needed for their growing bodies. As part of our program, we monitor the diet and nutritional requirements of  our children.

Our infants (babies under 12 months of age) are provided a formula of  Enfamil Lipil with Iron. However, if any parent wishes to bring their  own formula for their infant, we will be happy to  accommodate and serve that formula instead. The center provides infants with cereals of rice or oats, in addition to a large assortment of baby foods. Our infant  feeding program meets U.S.D.A. Nutrition Program standards.
