Children
Healthy Eating and Active Living are important factors in the continued growth and development of children. Children from ages six to twelve are learning to make decisions and choices for themselves. They are also developing attitudes and habits that will carry them throughout the rest of their lives. Therefore, it is important for the adults in their lives to continue to provide guidance and support on promoting healthy choices for the children.
