2. What are the different factors to consider in planning a menu for growing
children?
Another factor to consider is the cost of the food. Families with a tight
food budget can buy grains in bulk, shop at farmer's markets for fruits and
vegetables and choose less expensive sources of protein such as tuna
and ground beef, notes Williams. Because children are more likely to
develop healthy eating habits if their meals are made well and served at
the same time every day, meal preparers need to plan recipes that suit
their cooking skills and available time.
