Proper Eating Habits

Study after study has confirmed that child obesity is a growing problem in the United States (see ExchangeEveryDay for August 13, 2004 at http://mail.ccie.com/go/eed/0509). Early childhood programs can play a significant proactive role in helping children develop healthy eating habits. We know that many programs have developed clever and effective approaches to promoting healthy eating habits among the children in their programs, the adults working in their centers, and the parents they serve. We invite you to share your strategies for promoting healthy eating in the "Ideas from the Field" section of our web site. Here you can share your ideas, as well as view the ideas of your peers from around the world. A selection of these ideas will also be published in the March 2005 issue of Exchange.
