Healthful eating has many benefits for children. It can;

• Stabilize their energy.
• Improve their minds.
• Even out their moods.
• Help them maintain a healthy weight.

Healthy eating habits are more likely to stay with you if you learn them as a child. That’s why it’s important that you teach your children good habits now. It will help them stick with these eating patterns.*2
