11 lessons

Reading children's books with healthy eating messages encourages children to try new foods and make healthy choices. Each lesson includes an activity on a book (from your library or purchased separately) about healthy eating, a physical activity, a food-tasting activity, and a chance to practice healthy habits like hand washing. Lessons also include family newsletters that can be copied and sent home to help families make healthy choices.

The curriculum is three-hole punched and comes with a cover and spine that can be slipped into a binder with clear front and side pockets.
