Lesson 8Part 1: Nutrition and Kids
Eating Healthy
Kids Cooking Activities Ebooks
Today's Kids Cooking lessons involve one of the most
important things to learn in life. The earlier you teach children about
nutrition and healthy eating, the easier it is to form good habits.
Please visit
www.mypyramid.gov.
Hang a MyPyramid kid's poster on your fridge and print off a coloring
page for each child. Read and explain the poster and have your
assistant chef color their own chart like the poster. Either draw food
or have them find and cut out pictures of healthy food in a magazine to
glue according to each section.
Part 2: Grocery Store Tour
Take a trip to the grocery store not to buy anything but to give a
special tour. They might have been there many times but this time focus
on where things
are, such as, the fruits and vegetables, the meat
section, dairy
products, etc. Bring their colored chart with them to show them where
the foods are on the chart.
 Don't
forget to point our where the junk food is on their chart. That's
right it isn't on there! Point out healthy foods are along the outside
walls of the store where as the middle aisles are usually where the
junk food or processed food is located.
