Teaching Health to Preschoolers
I found an article / Guide on the website Kidshealth in the classroom.The website covers all grades.I clicked on the age group I wanted and found my article/ guide. It talks about Healthy Habits for life.They have a kit you can download. available in several languages. Included in the guide are lesson plans, ways to present them and ideas to get the children eating healthy and exercising. The guides include family handouts, family newsletters and separate sections on eating healthy, exercising and the third part is treating each day as a healthy day. The guide includes families on the weekends by giving ideas for ways families an keep moving together. There is a dvd mentioned in the guide that you can get to help with the lessons.
Here is the Kids Health website link

The article for preschooler's is great. When I reviewed the article I thought it was a good idea how they made a rainbow song for veggies and fruits. Pre-schoolers really love songs, (just from personal experience with my godson) he is always singing whatever songs he learned at daycare. Healthy eating is something that really needs to be implemented at a young age.
Love this article a lot! As a preschooler teacher it was nice to see that I am doing most of these things , singing, promoting healthy eating and exercise in my classroom. I believe this article should be shared with other preschool teachers as it is very informative.
