I'm annoyed that they're serving pizza AND a parent is bringing a snack. That's a lot of food between 9-11am... I bet c doesn't eat lunch! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-find-this-weird-or-is-this-something-i-just-need-to-get-used-to#post-1450566 Wed, 26 Feb 2014 10:59:55 +0000 Andrea 1450566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That seems weird! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-find-this-weird-or-is-this-something-i-just-need-to-get-used-to#post-1450562 Wed, 26 Feb 2014 10:58:31 +0000 keiki_mama 1450562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's really weird! :sad: I hate to think of all the children in the class that will feel left out... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-find-this-weird-or-is-this-something-i-just-need-to-get-used-to#post-1450553 Wed, 26 Feb 2014 10:56:43 +0000 Freckles 1450553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ditto to what @MamaMoose: said. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-find-this-weird-or-is-this-something-i-just-need-to-get-used-to#post-1450530 Wed, 26 Feb 2014 10:52:33 +0000 MamaMoose 1450530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would ask them if you are paying for pizza, what they are doing with the part of your tuition that was allocated to food for that day. Seriously, I would ask that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-find-this-weird-or-is-this-something-i-just-need-to-get-used-to#post-1450434 Wed, 26 Feb 2014 10:40:09 +0000 LuLu Mom 1450434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would be annoyed since food is included, however I would pay it so LO wasn't left out. I can't imagine them telling a toddler "no" to pizza when everyone else is eating it though? My child would throw a fit! ha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-find-this-weird-or-is-this-something-i-just-need-to-get-used-to#post-1450384 Wed, 26 Feb 2014 10:29:57 +0000 mediagirl 1450384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband keeps reminding me only 4 months to go at this daycare.... also is something I'm adding to the list of things to ask the new daycare.

They call it like 'lunch box' days or something, and they'll get Chik Fil A or pizza, and you have to pay for it. I haven't decided how to handle it yet (G's still too young) because I don't really feel like giving them more money, but I also don't want her to feel left out, like you said. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-find-this-weird-or-is-this-something-i-just-need-to-get-used-to#post-1450329 Wed, 26 Feb 2014 10:12:52 +0000 mediagirl 1450329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: first time they've ever mentioned it to me, at least. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-find-this-weird-or-is-this-something-i-just-need-to-get-used-to#post-1450326 Wed, 26 Feb 2014 10:12:22 +0000 Dandelion 1450326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah that's weird. Especially if they didn't mention it before. Is it a regular thing? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-find-this-weird-or-is-this-something-i-just-need-to-get-used-to#post-1450321 Wed, 26 Feb 2014 10:10:33 +0000 mediagirl 1450321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This morning I dropped our daughter off and the teacher told me they were having pizza day tomorrow. I responded with, "That's fine, she loves pizza." I figured she was telling me because I check the menu daily and send food if I don't like what they're serving. No, then she said, "Okay, it's $2 per child." </p> <p>Wait...what? You're having pizza day tomorrow. Kids love pizza. If I don't pay $2, my daughter doesn't get pizza. So all the kids around her would be eating pizza, she would be smelling it and she would be eating regular lunch. I know, I know, it's just $2 but it's the principle of it all. I PAY for you to feed my child at daycare and now I'm being asked to pay more for a pizza party. </p> <p>Hrmph. Would that annoy anyone else? </p>
