It's all about the mess! Oh and health!
Teachers Say No More Cupcakes, Please! š«š§
In schools across the nation, teachers are making a heartfelt plea to parents: Skip the cupcakes for birthday celebrations š. Why the change? It's not just about sugar highs and classroom chaos. š
Research shows that with over 30 students per class, frequent birthday treats contribute significantly to unhealthy eating habits š. The CDC highlights that childhood obesity rates have more than tripled since the 1970s, and sugary treats in school add to this alarming trend.
Instead, educators are encouraging non-food treats like stickers or extra recess time, promoting a healthier, more inclusive environment for all students š.
Parents, letās support our teachers in fostering wellness in classrooms by rethinking the birthday treat tradition. šā”ļøš
