Tips for healthy kids:
1) Provide them with at least five servings of vegetables and fruit a day.
What does that look like? a small apple, half of a banana, a handful of baby carrots, one celery stalk cut up and a stalk of steamed broccoli.
2) No sugary drinks: offer water once an hour, and 100% juice (1 serving/day), and or low fat milk.
3) Encourage children to be active. Buy them consumable equipment like balls, hula hoops, beanbags etc. Children will choose to be active when they have equipment to play with.
4) Set an example, by eating and drinking healthy options as well as by staying physically fit yourself.
