Provider Health Spotlight on Cindy Hodges
Cindy Hodges, Tioga Early Childhood Development Center in Tioga, Texas, had a problem with birthday parties. They were frequent and always included unhealthy snacks and treats.
Find out how Cindy was able to learn to love celebrating birthdays at her center and still keep the kids eating healthy, too!
