Our Food Philosophy

At Hygge Academy, we believe that what children eat shapes not only their health but also their ability to learn, grow, and engage with the world. That’s why we prioritize high-quality, nutrient-dense meals and snacks that foster healthy habits and a love for real food. Click the link below to see a sample daily food menu.

Our Approach Includes

Whole Foods Focus

We avoid highly processed snacks and opt for real, organic (when possible) ingredients. Children help care for our vegetable and herb garden, learning about where food comes from and the effort involved in growing it.

Community Involvment

Mealtime is a shared activity where children set the table, serve themselves, and help clean up. We encourage children to slow down, appreciate their food, and listen to their bodies to know when they’re full.

Learning Opportunities

From growing vegetables and fruits in our garden to prepping simple meals, we incorporate food into our daily curriculum to teach responsibility and healthy habits.

Celebrations

We love celebrating birthdays and special occasions, but we do it in a way that aligns with our healthy living philosophy. Instead of sugary treats, children participate in creating a dessert together using quality ingredients.

Thrive Market

Thrive Market offers organic and whole food snacks that align with our mission to avoid artificial additives and highly processed foods. Some favorites include:
