I pick him up at 3:15, and he always wants a snack in the car. I try to bring along healthier options like a banana or dried fruit. He continues to ask for more food until dinner. He is a bottomless pit. :p </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-childs-daycare-or-after-school-program-give-your-lo-afternoon-snacks#post-1869550 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 23:36:52 +0000 autumnlove 1869550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I provide an afternoon snack. I usually pack fruit and cheese. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-childs-daycare-or-after-school-program-give-your-lo-afternoon-snacks#post-1869527 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 22:53:20 +0000 daniellemybelle 1869527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They provide a snack in the afternoon. Pick up is at 3 and snack is usually 2 / 2:15. I believe it is usually Cheerios and things like that. I kind of wish they would give her the rest of her lunch instead since she often comes home with unfinished fruit &amp; veggies! But maybe they try and she's not into it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-childs-daycare-or-after-school-program-give-your-lo-afternoon-snacks#post-1869265 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 20:15:58 +0000 mediagirl 1869265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She does get a snack after naptime. I'm not a big fan of it but there's really nothing I can do. She doesn't snack in the afternoons at home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-childs-daycare-or-after-school-program-give-your-lo-afternoon-snacks#post-1869195 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 19:54:37 +0000 Smurfette 1869195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They give a regular snack at 3. Then whoever is still there at 5, they give something small, like maybe 10 goldfish. I like it so it tides her over till I get dinner ready. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-childs-daycare-or-after-school-program-give-your-lo-afternoon-snacks#post-1869168 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 19:47:14 +0000 T-Mom 1869168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They both get snacks from home. My DD's program does provide snacks but she's not allowed to have them due to allergies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-childs-daycare-or-after-school-program-give-your-lo-afternoon-snacks#post-1869107 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 19:32:58 +0000 regberadaisy 1869107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, they get a snack after nap time around 3. We eat dinner at 6 and she needs a snack at pickup /when she gets home. She'll never make it to dinner time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-childs-daycare-or-after-school-program-give-your-lo-afternoon-snacks#post-1869105 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 19:32:50 +0000 lovehoneybee 1869105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, he gets breakfast, lunch and a snack. Usually it's something like cheese, fruit and milk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-childs-daycare-or-after-school-program-give-your-lo-afternoon-snacks#post-1869100 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 19:31:30 +0000 mrbee 1869100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We pack a snack, but our son's after school program is always giving him pretzels or cookies just as I get there at 5:45/6 pm! We eat dinner right after pickup, so it affects his appetite and drives me crazy. I'm gonna talk to him about it, and see if I can convince him to just say no. Seems unlikely, but will try it out!</p> <p>Does your child's daycare or after school program give your LO afternoon snacks? </p>
