Food Safari Placemat

Practice Progress…
NOT Perfection!

Elementary children ages 6-11

Whether you are a ‘mom-on-a-mission’, an amazing dad or a loving grandparent it is important to feed your young one a nutritious diet. Good nutrition is the best route to fuel a child’s growth and development. A healthy introduction to food is imperative in elementary age children. At this age, good nutrition is vitally important for growth and brain development. Adapting to healthy eating in childhood establishes a positive relationship with food for life!

My Nutrition Placemat is like having a Registered Dietitian-Nutritionist (RDN) guiding both you and your young one at every meal! Early in life children will crave what they are introduced to. We are not born with an affinity for sugar, fat, and salt. Healthy and unhealthy eating habits are learned by watching how loved ones eat, being influenced by television, social media, and friends.

My Nutrition Placemat provides a wonderful opportunity to talk about eating right to fuel a healthy body. It’s true! YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT. Unfortunately, so often overweight kids become obese adults. These creative and educational teaching placemats are a proven effective guidance tool to remind us (at most meals) to eat a more thought-out, colorful, and well-balanced diet.

  • Every meal has a fruit and vegetable.
  • At every meal, the fruit and vegetable are to be eaten first.
  • Involve kids in the selection and preparation of meals.
  • Say ‘Do you want carrots or broccoli?’ instead of ‘What vegetable do you want?’
  • Little eyes are watching. Adults need to set the example!

Description

The complete product line of ‘My Nutrition Placemat’ includes:

 

‘My Nutrition Plate’ is like having actual directions to help mom and dad with the ‘how-to’ of feeding and raising a healthy elementary aged child. Overweight kids many times become obese adults. This does not have to be true.

This helpful nutrition education tool promotes a process of positive changes towards more balanced eating, not only on the plate, but also in the mind. The more mom and dad talk about healthy eating with your 6 – 11 year old the better they will eat! If you look at your child’s placemat with them most times they eat, it will begin to ‘talk’ … and teach. Then everyone wins! Reading the placemat daily will help everyone stay focused on feeding your body a better way.

Your child’s reward for ‘listening’ will be growing old healthfully instead of miserably! Creating a positive association with meal time, food choices and snacks will promote a lifetime of maintaining a healthy weight, good labs, less medication, more energy, and better health!
