Kids Nutrition 4: Labels and Packages

Friday, 03 February 2012 02:00 Written by admin 0 Comments

It is important to talk to your kids about food labels. Let them know how to read a label, especially how to review ingredients and check serving sizes.

See if your kids can pronounce everything on the box. It is important to find out what it is before you eat it. Kids look suspiciously
at “new” foods. Discuss the importance of content, not just what it looks like. Avoid “processed” foods, boxed or canned foods. Fresh food is best because you can tell what it is.

Here is a great game for kids called the Talking Food Label Game.
