How To Raise Healthy Kids For Life

The road to healthy children isn’t as dire and painful as many experts
would like us to believe. However, it is a commitment. As a parent
you have to commit to:
·         Educating yourself on proper nutrition for yourself and your
child
·         Taking the time to plan nutritious meals.
·         Demonstrating by example what good nutrition is Supporting your child in finding healthy, tasty food
·         Supporting your child to become an active member of the
food preparation process
·         Supporting your child to find physical activities that they enjoy
·         Supporting your child to try new things
·         Demonstrating by example that you believe in staying active
·         Demonstrating what it means to love yourself, by taking care
of yourself so that your child can emulate your behavior and
love themselves too.
The steps to take to help your child live a long, happy and healthy life
aren’t difficult but they take a commitment on your part. Know that
the habits that your child develops will stick with them for the rest of
their lives. The habits that you help them develop, whether they’re
healthy habits or harmful habits; will be passed on to your children’s
children.
