At its annual conference last week, the Pre-School Learning Alliance launched its Feeding Young Imaginations campaign with scientific charity the British Nutrition Foundation.
The programme will include guidelines for food provision in pre-school settings, advice for parents, training for pre-school staff and an award scheme.
Judith Thompson, chair of trustees of the Pre-School Learning Alliance, said her organisation had been "astounded" at the lack of guidance that was available to those caring for the birth to five age group.
She said: "There needed to be some easy, practical, down-to-earth advice for settings and also for parents."
