Healthy Me
Our Healthy Me program for Preschool and Pre-K is about healthy nutrition and physical activity choices, learn about the good things food does for our bodies, and develop positive eating habits that will last a lifetime. Fun, hands-on nutrition, and tasting activities will help our Preschoolers understand simple nutrition concepts, develop children's cleanliness skills, and provide a variety of cooking and tasting experiences.
Our lesson will also include growing a vegetable garden in Spring where the Pr-K children will learn how to care for plants. Planting a garden promotes delayed gratification, patience, a sense of responsibility, gives power and control over the environment, builds independence, and builds practical, fine, and gross motor skills.
