My dd started nursery last week, age 24 months. On day 1 while I was staying for an induction day, I saw that in her room (with approx 13 other children same age) there was a table of dried uncooked penne pasta and rice which is there to be scooped up with spoons and bowls and played with.
I could see my dd was chewing on it (I guess naturally as pasta has only ever been presented to her as food, especially with spoon, bowl etc..) and also some other toddlers who are regulars there were also trying to eat it so it wasn’t just a novelty thing for my dd.
Am I right to consider this a choking hazard in a nursery setting , and therefore it would be taken seriously by the keyworkers there if I raise it with them as a real worry for me, or does it sound like I am being paranoid ?
I am genuinely concerned about it and tend to think better to be safe than sorry.
V grateful for your opinions. Thanks.
