 note = {本研究では，はじめに，保育所における給食献立の間食について，咀嚼に着目して分析を行った．咀嚼筋活動量の食物分類にしたがって分析した結果，保育所で提供される間食の約15％がゲル状の食べ物，32％が果物，ケーキ，クッキーといった噛み応えが小さい食べ物であり，間食で提供される食べ物の約半数が，ほとんど咀嚼力を必要としない食べ物であることが明らかになった．次に，調理施設をもたない幼稚園で，延長保育を行う際に提供される市販の菓子について，咀嚼筋活動量と正の相関関係をもつテクスチャー測定値を用いて，市販の菓子の噛み応えを検討した．その結果，園で提供される市販の菓子のテクスチャー測定値は1.00（T.U.）から3.26（T.U.）の範囲内であり，噛み応えの大きい食べ物は提供されていないことが示された．現在，幼児の咀嚼能力の低下が憂慮されているが，保育所や幼稚園等（以下，園とする．）で提供される間食は噛み応えが小さい食べ物であることが示された．幼児にとって園で提供される間食も，幼児が様々な味や硬さの食材に出会い，食のレパートリーを広げる大切な機会ととらえて，様々な内容の間食を提供することが必要である．
In this study, snacks forming a part of the meal menu in childcare centers were first analyzed with a focus on chewing. The analysis was performed by classifying the food according to the amount of masticatory muscle action required. Approximately 15% of the snacks supplied in childcare centers are gel-like, whereas 32% are small-sized chewy foods such as fruits, cakes, and cookies. Thus, it became evident that approximately half of the foods supplied for snacking are mostly those that do not require much masticatory strength. Next, regarding commercial goodies supplied at kindergartens that provide extended day-care services with no cooking facilities, we investigated the chewiness of commercial sweets by using texture measurement values that are positively correlated with the amount of masticatory muscle action required. The texture measurement values of the commercial sweets supplied at the kindergartens ranged from 1.00 to 3.26（T.U.）, showing that foods with substantial chewiness are not being supplied. Currently, the decreased masticatory ability of young children poses a concern. However, the snacks supplied at childcare centers, kindergartens are foods with low chewiness. The snacks supplied to young children at pre-schools should enable the child to encounter various tastes and hardness of foodstuffs, and provide a beneficial opportunity to broaden their repertoire of food. Thus, various types of snacks should be supplied to young children at these facilities.},
