| Description: | The perfect introduction to good nutrition! Through a variety of fun activities, kids learn why they should--and how they can--adopt healthy eating habits. The Food Guide Pyramid, specifics on each food group, diversity of eating habits across cultures, the influence of the media, family eating habits, and the importance of exercise are all part of the "big picture" that's presented to youngsters. Interactive exercises help children distinguish between healthy foods and unhealthy snacks; track and evaluate their current diet; discover the importance of liquids; "grocery-shop" with good nutrition in mind; and appreciate the importance of a good breakfast. 12 pages, approx. 8 1/2" x 11". Ages 6-8. Each "Know What?" workbook comes with a printed Leader's Guide that expands upon the workbook's messages with dozens of innovative ways to help children develop and practice protective skills. You also get access to a Leader's Web site that includes a forum for sharing ideas with colleagues, an online version of the Leader's Guide, and downloadable editions (English and Spanish) of the workbook's family activity page.
