I am a Kindergarten teacher and I have used food as a way to engage the students during various lessons. This year my school system has decided against the use of any food in the classroom. This means no food for graphing, or any other lesson as well as no celebrations for birthdays. I am really disappointed and wish there was some flexibility.
I know the main reason for this decision is due to the number of food allergies that exist these days.
Any comments?

That is sad. I hope the parents voice opposition. What is snack time without the snack? I remember that being a great time for stories and play time for both me and my kids.
