Children learn about nutrition by having age-appropriate storybooks with food-related themes read to them, then participating in hands-on food and nutrition activities. Each lesson is centered around the food groups of MyPyramid, family times or mealtimes and includes an activity, recipes and a Dear Parent letter. Children learn at an early age how to make healthy food choices while developing a love for reading. Books can be purchased through Scholastic Paperback Collections 1-800-724-6527 www.scholastic.com
