Hello ladies
How often do you give your kids tuck shop? My kids were never given money for tuck shop until recently. I didn't like food choices at the old school. The new school they are in has a variety of healthy foods that are reasonable priced. They can order a chicken curry, crunchy chicken salad or hot pasta dishes for $3. Cost is an issue as I have 3 kids. I grew up overseas and there was no tuck shop for kids until high school. My kids tell me their friends get it at least once a week and some every day.

We had canteen at both primary and high school and they were both very health conscious, however quite expensive! In primary school I would get tuck shop on a Friday as a treat for the end of the week if I had done chores and been generally good, but in high school I started working for cash a few nights a week from 13 years old so my parents stopped paying for things like that..
I think when I was in primary school I got tuckshop once a fortnight. But at high school I had a casual job so if I wanted tuckshop I just bought it.
