Birthday Treats
Birthdays are special for children of all ages, so it is very important to promote this annual celebration. Please feel free to send your child with a small non-edible item to pass, such as a unique pencil, eraser, ring, or fun novelty as a birthday treat.
As times have changed and people are more aware of food allergies, it is important understand that quite often families are unaware that their child may have a food allergy until there is a reaction. While small children have the least amount of exposure to various foods in comparison to an older child, it is during these early years that most food allergies are exposed via a reaction. It is for this reason that edible birthday treats will not be distributed; please do not send any edible birthday treats to school for your Kindergarten child, as it will be returned home.
