Abstract

Lebih menyukai makanan jajanan dan pilih-pilih makanan merupakan salah satu fase pola makan yag dialami hampir seluruh anak usia dini. Jajanan yang sering dikonsumsi oleh anak-anak seringkali minim zat gizi dan banyak mengandung bahan tambahan dan berpengawet.  Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk memberikan edukasi kepada masyarakat khususnya kaum ibu melalui Program Pemberdayaan Kesejahteraan Keluarga (PKK) tentang pemenuhan asupan gizi melalui camilan sehat. Sasaran dalam kegiatan ini adalah ibu-ibu yang tergabung dalam PKK yang memiliki anak usia dini yang tinggal di wilayah Jakarta. Kegiatan dilakukan dengan memberikan paparan materi tentang konsep makanan bergizi seimbang dan pentingnya pemenuhan asupan gizi pada anak usia dini melalui makanan serta workshop membuat camilan sehat berupa drumstick nasi isi ayam dan nugget tempe. Pemilihan kedua menu camilan ini berdasarkan hasil analisis kebutuhan dimana anak-anak senang mengkonsumsi makanan siap saji dalam bentuk makanan beku (frozen food) dalam bentuk nugget dan juga drumstick. Untuk menjaga asupan gizi anak dapat terpenuhi, maka kedua menu ini dibuat agar anak mendapatkan asupan nilai gizi yang lebih baik walaupun makanan yang dikonsumsi dalam bentuk camilan. Diharapkan setelah melakukan workshop, ibu-ibu peserta kegiatan dapat mempraktekkan di rumah menu camilan sehat tersebut dan menjadi alternatif camilan baru bagi anak, sehingga anak lebih terpantau asupan makanannya dan wawasan ibu-ibu peserta kegiatan dapat bertambah tentang makanan bergizi seimbang.
