How to Teach Nutrition to Kids, Third Edition (New)

Connie Liakos Evers

With the majority of children in part- or full-time afterschool care, these programs have a unique opportunity to use the hours after school for enrichment and continued learning. The science of nutrition, a topic becoming more popular with rising childhood obesity, may seem a complex and dry topic for children, but this recently updated guide provides positive information and fun activity ideas complete with illustrations. The author goes beyond the old food pyramid and includes many simple, healthy recipes. The book teaches adults and children how to make beneficial dietary choices, empowering them by explaining how to have a positive self-image, encouraging physical fitness, and emphasizing healthy eating habits.
