Introduce Healthy Habits That Last a Lifetime!
|
|
|
|
Supplement your classroom’s wellness curricula with a fun, interactive experience filled with healthy ideas. For example, your group will learn how to use color as a guide to ensure they’re getting a wide range of vitamins and minerals. They’ll come away knowing:
- Everyday habits to stay healthy
- The benefits of physical activity
- The importance of a well-balanced diet
- How to find the Healthy Ideas in-store labels

Every Tour Stop Becomes a Teaching Moment
|
|
|
|
|
Trained tour leaders will tailor this 60-90 minute adventure so your group gets the most out of it. They’ll demystify the word “organic,” talk about the four food groups and encourage the use of reusable bags. The next time they go grocery shopping, your students will fill their reusable bags with more nutritious foods!
