Childhood is an optimal time for helping children to develop healthy eating and safe active living
habits for life. Developing healthy eating and safe active living habits early in life helps provide a
foundation of wellness to help children grow up healthy.
Thje people that put these activities together consulted with Early Childhood Professionals to develop the “Snactivity Box: Activities for promoting healthy eating and active living habits for young children”. This box contains a series of “Snactivities” or activities that Early Childhood Professionals can use to promote healthy eating and active living to children ages 2-6 within their childcare settings. These activities are to be delivered by Early Childhood Professionals, who are encouraged to help children take the healthy eating and active living messages home.
Do a “Snactivity a Day”! Children need to eat several times throughout the day and should be physically active every day. Therefore, there are many opportunities for teaching children about healthy eating and active living.
Help the Snactivity Box grow!! Add in your own ideas to the Snactivity Box! Have fun!
