How can I help my child maintain a healthy weight?
|
| Most children will reach a healthy weight if
given proper nutrition and the opportunity to be physically active. To
ensure your child receives enough nutrients, simply follow the childrens’
food guide pyramid. |
 |
| The smallest amount of servings for each food
category would be served to preschoolers, with the largest number of
servings designated for young teenagers. |
 |
To keep children active, make sure they have
plenty of opportunity for outdoor activities, such as bicycling, sports,
swimming, and outdoor games. In addition, limit computer and television
time so that active lifestyle habits are established early on. |
