Abstract

Building children’s understanding and habits in consuming diverse, nutritious, balanced, and safe foods is not an easy thing. Early Childhood Education institutions or in Indonesia called Early Childhood Education are an environment that has a role and influence on various developments, behaviors, and habits of children after the family. In the concept of food security, the food that must be consumed and most easily socialized is the B2SA (Beragam, Bergizi, Seimbang, dan Aman) concept in Bahasa, or Diverse, Nutritious, Balanced and Safe. The research was conducted through a survey in six Early Childhood Education in Serang City and 52 early age Children. The research found that children’s meals already contain various food elements, but the children may not get the safe intake. None of the six schools had a food security policy, especially those that regulated diverse, nutritious, balanced, and safe foods.
