This study aimed to investigate the effect of the five senses activities involving food ingredients on the eating behavior of infants. The study was carried out four times over 6 months. We surveyed 65 nursery school infants and teachers who were registered at the 2020 Guro-gu Center for Children's Food Service Management in Seoul. They participated in the five senses education specialization project. The results of the study showed that the scores relating to unbalanced diet, hygiene management, dietary attitude, and dietary manners were visibly higher than those before participating in the five senses educational activities. In addition, there was a significant difference in the perception of the food ingredients used in the five senses education activities. Finally, as a result of investigating the types of education used before, during, and after the five senses education activities, and the need for education by type, cooking activities were observed to rank higher than other activities in all questions. Based on this, if dietary guidance is provided through a variety of five senses education activities over a long period rather than as a one-time event, it will be beneficial to the children's healthy eating habits.

유아의 영양교육 및 바람직한 식습관을 정착을 위한 그림책 개발을 위해 유아용 그림책의 식생활교육 내용을 분석하였다. 누리과정지도서 그림책(Nuri) 42권, 국립어린이청소년도서관 추천 그림책(NlCY) 40권, 어린이급식관리지원센터에서 출간한 그림책(CCFM) 46권, 총 128권을 분석하였다. 분석 도구 및 범주는 한국인을 위한 식생활지침과 누리과정의 신체활동·건강 영역 '바른 식생활하기' 교육 목표를 사용하였다. Nuri, NLCY, CCFM 그림책의 차이를 찾기 위해 교차분석을 실시한 결과(p<.05). 그림책에 가장 많이 등장하는 항목은 '매일 신선한 채소, 과일과 함께 곡류, 고기·생선·달걀·콩류, 우유·유제품을 균형 있게 먹자'로 그림책의 28.9%가 이 내용을 담고 있었으며 각 군 간에 유의미한 차이는 없었다. 그림책에서 두 번째로 많이 나타난 식생활지침은 '현지 식재료와 환경을 생각하는 식생활을 즐기자'로 21.9%가 이 내용을 포함하고 있었다. 이 항목은 군 간 차이(p<.05)가 있었는데, CCFM 그림책 6.5%, NURI 그림책 27.5%, NLCY 그림책 33.3%였다. '덜 짜고, 덜 달고, 덜 기름지게 먹자' '물을 충분히 마시자', '과식을 피하고 활동을 늘려 건강한 체중을 유지하자' '아침 식사를 꼭 하자' '음식은 위생적으로, 필요한 만큼만 마련하자' '음식을 먹을 땐 각자 덜어 먹기를 실천하자'는 그림책에 나오는 비율이 8% 미만으로 낮았다. 누리과정에서 '바른 식생활하기' 주요 내용으로 '건강한 음식' 36.72%, '음식을 골고루 먹는다' 30.47%를 차지했다. '바른 태도로 식사한다' 4.69%, '음식을 소중히 여긴다' 3.13%, '식사예절을 지킨다' 6.25%로 낮았다. 그림책에 가장 많이 나타난 식품은 채소류였다. 따라서 향후 식생활지침이나 누리과정의 영양 목표 관련 부족한 내용을 반영한 그림책을 더욱 개발하고 보급할 필요가 있다.

본 연구에서는 보육교사의 배식관리 및 식사지도에 대한 중요도와 수행도를 파악하기 위하여 서울시 금천구의 어린이집에 근무하고 있는 보육교사 179명을 대상으로 2013년 12월에 설문조사를 실시하였다. 응답한 어린이집의 유형은 가정 어린이집 (39.7%), 민간 어린이집 (31.8%), 국공립 어린이집 (28.5%) 순으로 많았다. 요인분석 결과, 보육교사가 수행하는 배식관리 및 식사지도는 '개인 위생관리 (요인 1)', '식사지도 (요인 2)', '식재료 위생관리 (요인 3)', '맞춤형 배식 서비스 (요인 4)'의 총 4개의 요인, 11개의 항목으로 추출되었다. 보육교사는 '배식 시 위생모를 착용한다', '배식 시 일회용 장갑을 착용한다' 등의 요인 1 (개인위생관리)과 관련한 항목에 대한 중요도를 가장 낮게 인지하고 있었으며 수행도도 가장 낮았다, 반면 '영유아의 연령을 고려하여 음식을 잘라서 배식한다', '영유아의 연령별로 1인 분량을 달리하여 배식한다'의 요인 4 (맞춤형 배식서비스)와 관련된 항목에 대한 중요도를 가장 높게 인지하고 있었고 수행도도 가장 높았다. 중요도-수행도 분석 결과, 중요도와 수행도가 모두 높은 1사분면에는 '영유아의 식습관을 격려하고 칭찬한다', '식사 전 후 감사인사를 한다', '영유아와 함께 앉아 식사한다' 및 '영유아의 연령을 고려하여 음식을 잘라서 배식한다'의 4개 항목이 포함되어 있었다. 이에 비해 중요도와 수행도가 모두 낮은 3사분면에는 '배식 시 위생모를 착용한다', '배식 시 일회용 장갑을 사용한다', '배식 시 배식용 앞치마를 착용한다', '영유아의 연령별로 1인 분량을 달리하여 배식한다'의 4개 항목이 포함되어 있었다. 중요도는 낮다고 인지하고 있으나 수행도는 높은 4사분면에는 '조리 완료 후 2시간 이내에 배식한다', '먹다 남은 우유 (분유)를 바로 버린다', '식사 중 영유아의 이름을 부르며 대화한다'가 포함되어 있었다. 본 연구결과, 전반적으로 보육교사는 배식과 관련한 정부 지침에 대해 중요하다고 인식하고 있었으며 현장에서 이를 수행하고 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 그러나 보육교사는 배식 시의 개인 위생관리 및 식재료 위생관리에 대해서는 중요하다고 인지하는 정도가 맞춤형 배식 서비스에 비해 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 특히 개인 위생관리는 중요도뿐만 아니라 수행도도 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이에 보육교사를 대상으로 개인 위생관리의 중요성에 대한 교육이 실시 되어야 하며, 특히 배식 시의 위생적인 복장 착용에 대한 주제로 한 교육이 필요할 것으로 생각된다. 또한 보육교사가 이를 실천할 수 있는 어린이집의 급식 환경 마련이 필요할 것으로 생각된다. 이를 위해 정부 및 관련 기관에서는 보육교사를 대상으로 한 위생교육을 지속적으로 제공하고 교육 이론을 현장에 적용할 수 있도록 환경을 조성해야 한다.

The aims of this study were to investigate (1) the status of food materials purchased by group-buying companies and (2) the satisfaction with food materials and service quality of group-buying companies in foodservice at child-care centers. In November 2013, child-care centers which were participated in a group-buying program in Gwanak-gu, Seoul were requested to complete self-reported questionnaires. One hundred and eight respondents (76.9% of directors, 23.1% of non-directors) completed questionnaires, including purchase frequency of food materials, degree of satisfaction with 'food materials' and 'operating system and service' of group-buying companies. About 60% of child-care centers purchased food materials from major companies. Respondents' overall satisfaction with 'food materials' and 'operating system and service' were '3.55' and '3.72' out of 5 points, respectively. For overall satisfaction with food materials, there were significant differences between 'public (3.79)' and 'private, home-based (3.31)' child-care centers (p=0.023). The results of multi-regression analysis showed that quality (${\beta}$=0.271, p=0.013) and price appropriateness (${\beta}$=0.284, p=0.002) were associated with overall satisfaction with food materials purchased by group-buying companies. The factors such as delivery accuracy about items(${\beta}$=-0.201, p=0.042), hygiene of delivery process (${\beta}$=-0.207, p=0.025) and communication with companies (${\beta}$=-0.317, p=0.003) were significantly associated with overall satisfaction with operating system and service provided by group-buying companies. The results of this study could be utilized for group-buying companies and the government to develop guidelines and policies on food material buying in foodservice at child-care centers.

Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are chemicals present in the environment that interfere with the normal hormone functions of various organisms and cause genetopathy, deformities, or cancer. This study surveyed the awareness of EDCs with 242 cooking staff at 242 meal service facilities for children located in a part of Gyeonggi Province. To minimize infants' exposure to EDCs, the subjects were provided with information on EDCs for two months. The behavior of reducing exposure to EDCs was analyzed according to the awareness of EDCs and work ethics. In addition, the effects before and after being provided with the information were evaluated. According to the results, the levels of awareness of EDCs and work ethics' scores of the cooking staff were high with 3.95 and 4.39 points, respectively, out of five points. In addition, a higher awareness of EDCs and a higher work ethics' score were associated with an improved behavior of reducing exposure to EDCs (P<0.05). The overall cooking and cleaning behavior for reducing exposure to EDCs showed improvement after providing information (P<0.01). Therefore, these results suggest that it is important to provide continuous education to enhance the awareness of EDCs, work ethics, and behavior to reduce exposure to EDCs.

Objectives: Since the enactment of the School Nutrition Act in 1981, school lunch programs in South Korea have grown quantitatively and qualitatively with a current student participation rate of 99.8%. Nonetheless, educational materials are needed to reduce misunderstanding and ignorance about school lunch programs. This study aimed to develop 3 educational videos that help students of various ages (kindergarteners/lower-grade elementary, upper-grade elementary, and secondary school, respectively), understand the school lunch program. Methods: A scenario was created, was made, and the opinions on the scenario from experts in foodservice sectors were collected. A survey was conducted to students and parents to determine topics they wanted to know about school foodservice. The final videos were produced using this information and the expert opinions. The data were analyzed using SPSS 27.0 for Mac (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA); a P-value of < 0.05 was considered significant. Results: Three videos on school foodservice were developed for various age levels of students: kindergarten/lower-grade elementary, upper-grade elementary, and secondary school. Additionally, English subtitles were included for the multicultural student population. These videos, each lasting about 7 minutes, cover topics such as nutrition, hygiene, and the cultural significance of the school lunch program. The survey results showed that parents and students wanted to know the following topics about the school lunch program: "nutritionally balanced diet" (11.9%), "purchasing safe food ingredients" (10.9%), and "healthy eating habits" (9.9%). Conclusions: The developed videos will serve as valuable educational resources on school foodservice, foster a deeper understanding of the school lunch program in parents and students, and potentially address their inquiries regarding production processes, nutrition, hygiene, cultural heritage, and health.

This study was conducted on 175 child-care teachers, who participated in in-service education, to research the methods to improve child-care teacher's nutrition management capability for infants and children. Investigated results of child-care teachers' nutrition knowledge, dietary attitude status, and needs on nutrition education in child-care centers are as follows: The score of child-care teachers' nutrition knowledge was 10.83 points out of 15, which is about 72%. Total score increased as teachers' age but not significantly different from their career duration, since teachers who have a child-care career less than 5 years acquired 10.91 points, which is higher than 10.64 points of teachers having more than 5 years of child-care career. Teachers' average recognition to the nutrition knowledge was 90.6%, increased significantly by the older they are, and decreased according to the accumulation of their career. The average accuracy of the nutrition knowledge was 79.7%, increased in proportion to the teachers' age. The marks of child-care teachers' dietary attitude were 41.3 points (possible score range 5-50) and 83%, older teachers tended to have more desirable dietary attitude. As indicated by the increment of child-care career, the score of emotional attitude tended to be increased but which of cognitive and behavioral attitude showed a declining tendency. Nutrition information which child-care teachers were mainly interested in were correct selection of food (58.1%), obesity and weight management (52.7%), and nutrient content of food (44.9%). Nutrition education contents which child-care teachers needed were 'nutritious food and menu for child' (72.2%), 'health management of child' (69.2%) and meal management of child (40.2%). Nutrition education methods, which child-care teachers considered as of desirable ones, were cooking class of small scale (31.8%), visiting class at child-care center (26.5%). In consequence, the nutrition knowledge and dietary attitude of child-care teachers were not good and showed different issues by age and career duration. Therefore, it is requisite to intensify nutrition management courses in child-care teachers' qualification and in-service education courses which has actual necessity and suitability based on teachers' age, career, and the type of child-care center, and to disseminate these through public health centers and child-care & education information centers to pursue the efficient balance of nutrition education programs.
