The charity organisation we partnered with for this year’s Start Small Dream Big - Back to the Good Old Days project is Food From the Heart. Food From The Heart is a non-profit organisation that contributes to the less-fortunate in Singapore through food distribution programmes. In a “kampong” spirit, Tots & Teddies would also like to do our part in giving back to the society.
Apart from imparting the positive values of charity and giving, it is also vital that we educate our little ones on the importance of healthy and nutritious eating in line with our school’s Health & Fitness lesson objectives of selecting food items with the healthy logo and checking for expiry dates. We also involved our parents to plan grocery shopping trips with their children and have them help to pick out and select nutritionally-appropriate food items - what a great way to bond and meaningfully involve our children in the whole process!
Tots & Teddies is pleased to share that we managed to donate 87 packets of nutritious food items along with Back to the Good Old Days gift packs containing old school snacks and games to be given to families with children.
