Overall, we love our daughter's school but I have concerns about the snacks the teacher is providing this year (teacher/school provides snack, kids bring lunch). Last year, my daughter had the usual pretzels, goldfish, crackers, etc. for snack with the occasional cookie here and there or birthday treats if a student brought them in. This year though, it seems sweets/junk food are pretty consistently given. For example, some of her snacks on a regular basis are Oreos, chocolate chip cookies, fruit snacks, and corn chips. I feel that's unnecessary and excessive in the sweets/junk food department for prek children. Our kids do get treats like ice cream and chocolate chip cookies at times, but they're considered a treat and we prefer that they don't get them every day. Plus, this may sound silly and selfish, but I feel like if she's gotten cookies at school already, I shouldn't give her more at home and I like to have a treat with her once in a while for fun.

What would you do in this situation? Do I talk to other class parents and see if this is a shared concern? Do I approach the teacher in person? Email her? I want to be able to talk to her about this without embarrassing her and while putting her at ease. Would it be helpful to bring in some healthier snack choices so that I can help contribute that way? Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
