73| Food Allergies At School: Rethinking Celebrations Without The Cake

Hey food allergy mama!

This episode might be controversial, but today I’m talking about why I think celebrations with food like birthday cupcakes, donuts, and cookies don’t belong in the classroom. 

Neither of my kids had food-free classroom celebrations, but this has been something I hoped for, for many years.  And for different reasons than you might think!

In this episode, I’m sharing my astonishing reasons why celebrations in the classrooms should be food-free, and in case you’re worried that taking food out of celebrations will make school boring and full of misery, listen to the end for surprising kid and teacher-approved alternatives that make school super fun and exciting.

I'm cheering for you!
