Why attend?

When children observe and experience good habits from the adults in their lives, they are more likely to keep those habits themselves.

It is crucial to begin practicing healthy eating habits early on in your child’s life. One of the most important conversations to have with your child is the power of healthy eating.

As children grow and develop, they need important nutrients to be strong and healthy. Healthy food choices can produce:

  • Stable energy

  • Strong bones and teeth

  • Improved mental health

  • A healthy weight

  • Prevention of chronic diseases
