- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

The statement is true because it states that providers who have infants in their care are required to offer an iron fortified formula in their day care.

To ensure children eat enough, providers should make them "clean their plate"
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

Forcing children to "clean their plate" is not an effective way to ensure they eat enough. It can lead to overeating and a lack of awareness of their own hunger and fullness cues. It is important to encourage children to listen to their bodies and eat until they are satisfied, rather than finishing everything on their plate. This approach promotes a healthy relationship with food and helps children develop self-regulation skills.

- First, before other foods
- Last, after the children have eaten their food
- At the same time as all other meal components
- Never, milk is for snack only
Correct Answer

A. At the same time as all other meal components

Explanation

The correct answer is "At the same time as all other meal components". This means that milk should be served together with the other foods during mealtime. It is important to provide milk as part of a balanced meal to ensure that children receive the necessary nutrients from both the milk and the other food items.

The CACFP (Child and Adult Care Food Program) is a federal program that provides nutritious meals and snacks to eligible children in child care centers, family child care homes, and afterschool programs. It is designed to ensure that children from low-income families receive the nutrition they need for healthy growth and development. By making the program available to all children at no cost to the parent or guardian, it ensures that no child is excluded based on their family's financial situation. This helps to promote equal access to nutritious meals for all children, regardless of their socioeconomic status.

Correct Answer

A. End of each day

Explanation

Child care providers are required to record their menus and meal counts at the end of each day according to federal regulations. This is important for various reasons, including ensuring that the children are receiving proper nutrition, tracking any dietary restrictions or allergies, and maintaining accurate records for regulatory compliance. By recording this information daily, child care providers can easily track and monitor the meals provided to the children in their care on a regular basis.

A provider needs to change her meal times. She should:
- Make the change and inform her site monitor on the next visit.
- Notify the food program of the changes on the first day the new meal times take affect.
- Not call the food program, since they don't need to know.
Correct Answer

A. Notify the food program of the changes on the first day the new meal times take affect.

Explanation

The correct answer is to notify the food program of the changes on the first day the new meal times take effect. This is important because the food program needs to be aware of any changes in order to properly monitor and support the provider. By informing the food program on the first day, they can update their records and ensure that the provider is in compliance with program regulations.

Rate this question:
15.

Serving meals "family style" encourages healthy eating relationships.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

Serving meals "family style" encourages healthy eating relationships because it allows everyone at the table to serve themselves and choose the amount of food they want. This promotes autonomy and a sense of control over one's own eating, which can lead to a healthier relationship with food. Additionally, it encourages communication and interaction between family members during mealtime, fostering a positive and supportive environment for making healthy food choices.

Rate this question:
16.

A provider must notify the 4Cs food program if s/he moves. The provider may continue to claim meals served at the old address until:
- The end of the week
- The end of the month
- The last meal served at that address
- As long as s/he wants to
Correct Answer

A. The last meal served at that address

Explanation

The correct answer is "The last meal served at that address." This means that the provider can continue to claim meals served at the old address until they have served their final meal there. Once the last meal is served, they must notify the 4Cs food program of their move.

Rate this question:
17.

There must be a minimum of how many hours between main meals and snacks?
- 1 hour
- 2 hours
- 3 hours
- 4 hours
Correct Answer

A. 2 hours

Explanation

To maintain a healthy eating pattern, it is recommended to have a minimum of 2 hours between main meals and snacks. This time gap allows the body to properly digest the main meal and prevents overeating. Waiting for 2 hours also helps to stabilize blood sugar levels and maintain energy throughout the day. Having snacks too close to main meals may lead to excessive calorie intake and hinder the digestion process. Therefore, a minimum of 2 hours between main meals and snacks is ideal for maintaining a balanced and healthy diet.

Rate this question:

- May 1st
- May 5th
- May 30th
- June 1st
Correct Answer

A. May 5th

Explanation

The correct answer is May 5th because the parent signed and dated the enrollment forms for the CACFP on that date. This indicates that the child is officially enrolled in the program and eligible for reimbursement.

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) sets the regulations for the Child and Adult Care Food Program.
- True
- False

A. True

Explanation

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is responsible for setting the regulations for the Child and Adult Care Food Program.

A site monitor observes a lunch served to 6 preschool aged children. The site monitor asks to see the milk carton and it is 2% milk. The lunch is allowable.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

The site monitor observes that the milk served to the preschool children is 2% milk. Since the question states that the lunch is allowable, it implies that serving 2% milk to preschool children is acceptable. However, this is incorrect as preschool-aged children should be served whole milk, not 2% milk. Therefore, the correct answer is false.

Rate this question:
21.

Which of the following are allowable at snack time?
- Potato chips
- 100% Juice
- Sunny Delight
- Bacon
Correct Answer

A. 100% Juice

Explanation

100% Juice is an allowable option at snack time because it is a healthier choice compared to potato chips, Sunny Delight, and bacon. Juice made from 100% fruit can provide essential vitamins and minerals, and can be a good source of hydration. It is a better option for a snack as it does not contain added sugars or unhealthy fats like the other options mentioned.

Rate this question:
22.

Cheerios is a creditable as an infant cereal.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

Cheerios is not credible as an infant cereal because it is not specifically formulated for infants. Infant cereals are typically fortified with essential nutrients that are important for the growth and development of babies. Cheerios, on the other hand, is a cereal that is marketed towards adults and older children. It does not provide the necessary nutrients that infants require, such as iron and certain vitamins. Therefore, it is not recommended to give Cheerios to infants as a cereal option.

This implies that the breakfast includes all the necessary components to meet the requirements for reimbursement. The inclusion of oatmeal, berries, and milk covers the necessary food groups and meets the criteria for a reimbursable meal. Therefore, there is nothing missing from the breakfast in terms of meeting the reimbursement guidelines.

- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

Tofu is not approved for reimbursement as a meat/meat alternate. This means that if someone wants to get reimbursed for purchasing tofu as a substitute for meat, they will not be able to do so. Therefore, the statement "Tofu is not approved for reimbursement as a meat/meat alternate" is true.

Rate this question:
26.

If the site monitor arrives for a visit and the provider is not present, but the assistant is present, the site monitor will:
- Conduct the site visit with the assistant
- Return a different day
- Wait for the provider to return
- Schedule a follow up visit
Correct Answer

A. Conduct the site visit with the assistant

Explanation

If the site monitor arrives for a visit and the provider is not present, but the assistant is present, the site monitor will conduct the site visit with the assistant. This is because the assistant is available and can provide the necessary information or assistance during the visit. The site monitor does not need to wait for the provider to return or schedule a follow-up visit as the assistant can fulfill their role in the absence of the provider.

A provider can be reimbursed for serving a 5 month old infant breast milk.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

A provider can be reimbursed for serving a 5-month-old infant breast milk because breast milk is considered a suitable and nutritious source of food for infants. It is recommended by healthcare professionals as the best form of nutrition for babies up to 6 months old. Therefore, if a provider is serving breast milk to a 5-month-old infant, they can be reimbursed for providing a necessary and appropriate food source for the child.

Rate this question:

Potatoes are creditable as both a grain/bread or a vegetable.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

Potatoes are not creditable as both a grain/bread and a vegetable. While potatoes are a starchy vegetable, they do not fall into the category of grains or bread.

The given meal is reimbursable because it meets the requirements for a reimbursable meal. The meal includes a grain component (homemade enriched pizza crust), a meat/meat alternative component (Canadian bacon), a dairy component (mozzarella cheese and milk), and a fruit/vegetable component (pineapple and green salad). Therefore, it includes all the necessary components to be considered reimbursable.

This means that they need to keep these records for a total of at least 3 years, including the current year. This is important for documentation and compliance purposes, as it allows for the tracking and verification of meal counts and enrollment information over a significant period of time.

- Just PM snack
- Just Dinner
- Both PM snack and Dinner
- Nothing
Correct Answer

A. Just PM snack

Explanation

The provider can claim just the PM snack because the child arrived at 2:30pm, which is in time for the PM snack. The child was picked up at 4:40pm, which is after dinner was served at 4:30pm. Therefore, the provider cannot claim dinner as the child was not present during that time.

Rate this question:

Rate this question:
38.

All children, including the provider's own children, can be claimed on the food program, regardless of income.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

This statement is false. The eligibility for claiming children on the food program is not solely based on the provider's own children or their income. The food program has specific guidelines and criteria for determining which children can be claimed, such as their age, attendance at the provider's facility, and the income eligibility of their families. Therefore, it is not accurate to say that all children, including the provider's own children, can be claimed on the food program regardless of income.

Rate this question:

Pinto beans is served at lunch today, which component can it be claimed as?
- None, Pinto Beans are not reimbursable
- Vegetable only
- Vegetable or Meat/Meat Alternate, but not both in the same meal
- Meat/Meat Alternate only
Correct Answer

A. Vegetable or Meat/Meat Alternate, but not both in the same meal

Explanation

Pinto beans can be claimed as either a vegetable or a meat/meat alternate, but not both in the same meal. This means that if pinto beans are served as the main protein source in a meal, they can be counted as a meat/meat alternate. However, if they are served as a side dish or as part of a vegetable dish, they can be counted as a vegetable. It is important to note that pinto beans cannot be counted as both a vegetable and a meat/meat alternate in the same meal.

- Once a day
- Twice a week
Correct Answer

A. Twice a week

Explanation

Products like animal crackers, cookies, pop tarts, granola bars, and brownies can be served as snacks and are reimbursable. However, they can only be served twice a week, meaning they cannot be served more frequently than that. This implies that there is a limit on how often these products can be served as snacks.

Rate this question:
41.

Which of these is NOT a creditable snack for a 3 year old?
- Apple and string cheese
- Milk and cookies
- Rice cakes and yogurt
- Apple juice and carrots
Correct Answer

A. Apple juice and carrots

Explanation

Apple juice and carrots are not a creditable snack for a 3-year-old because apple juice is high in sugar and low in fiber, which can contribute to tooth decay and unhealthy weight gain. Carrots, on the other hand, can be a choking hazard for young children if not cut into small, manageable pieces. It is important to provide snacks that are nutritious and age-appropriate, such as the other options listed, which include fruits, dairy, and whole grains.

Rate this question:
42.

- No
- Yes, with permission in advance from 4C
- Yes, with a parent signature verifying child's attendance on the holiday
- Yes, it would be a civil rights violation if 4C disallowed it
Correct Answer

A. Yes, with a parent signature verifying child's attendance on the holiday

Explanation

According to the given answer, meals can be claimed on holidays when 4Cs is closed, but only if there is a parent signature verifying the child's attendance on that holiday. This suggests that 4Cs allows parents to claim meals for their child on holidays, but they need to provide proof that the child was present on that day.

Rate this question:

A provider claims 6 children regularly for dinner. The site monitor observes a dinner and only 3 children are present. What can the provider expect to happen?
- Another regular site visit in about 4 months
- A serious deficiency notice
- A request to see children attendance records
- A follow up site visit in the next 30 days to view the same meal again
Correct Answer

A. A follow up site visit in the next 30 days to view the same meal again

Explanation

Based on the information provided, the provider claims to regularly have 6 children for dinner, but during a site visit only 3 children are present. This indicates a discrepancy between the claimed number of children and the actual number present. Therefore, the provider can expect a follow-up site visit in the next 30 days to verify the number of children attending the meal.

Rate this question:

How often must child enrollment forms be updated? Select all that apply.
- Every other year
- Every year
- Monthly

A. Every year
A. As need when information changes

Explanation

Child enrollment forms must be updated every year to ensure that the information on file is accurate and up to date.

This helps to ensure that the child's records are current and that the school or organization has the most accurate information available.

Rate this question:

- Yogurt
- Broccoli
- Crackers
Correct Answer

To make this meal creditable, yogurt needs to be added. This is because yogurt is a good source of protein and calcium, which are important nutrients for a balanced meal. The addition of yogurt would provide additional nutritional value to the meal, making it more balanced and creditable.

Rate this question:
46.

Which of the following are ways to prevent children from choking on food? Check all that apply.
- Cut grapes into quarters
- Leave all the bones in the meat
- Make sure food is less than 1 inch in diameter
- Have the child sit at the table
Correct Answer(s)

A. Cut grapes into quarters
A. Have the child sit at the table

Explanation

Cutting grapes into quarters and having the child sit at the table are ways to prevent children from choking on food. Cutting grapes into smaller pieces reduces the risk of choking as the smaller size makes it easier for the child to swallow. Having the child sit at the table while eating ensures that they are in a safe and stable position, reducing the likelihood of choking. Leaving bones in the meat and making sure food is less than 1 inch in diameter do not help prevent choking and may actually increase the risk.

- 1
- 3
- 5

Child Care Homes will receive at least 3 visits per year from their site monitor. Reasons for additional visits include:
- Change in meal schedule
- Menu records do not match site visit records
- Records are not up to date
- The number of children normally claimed is not observed at site visit
Correct Answer(s)

A. Menu records do not match site visit records
A. Records are not up to date
A. The number of children normally claimed is not observed at site visit

Explanation

Child Care Homes will receive at least 3 visits per year from their site monitor. This is to ensure that the child care facility is complying with regulations and providing a safe and healthy environment for the children. During these visits, the site monitor will check various aspects of the facility, including the menu records. If the menu records do not match the site visit records, it may indicate that the facility is not providing the meals as stated or that there is a discrepancy in the documentation. Similarly, if the records are not up to date, it suggests a lack of organization and compliance. Lastly, if the number of children claimed by the facility does not match the actual number observed during the site visit, it raises concerns about the accuracy of the facility's reporting.

Rate this question:
49.

- Claiming a child for dinner who was picked up at 3:45pm
- Claiming a child for meals served on days the child was on vacation
- Claiming a child for breakfast when they arrived at 9:05am
- All of the above
Correct Answer

A. Claiming a child for meals served on days the child was on vacation

Explanation

Claiming a child for meals served on days the child was on vacation is considered a false claim because the child was not present to receive the meals. This goes against the guidelines and requirements for submitting accurate claims.
