Teaching Healthy Eating

If getting your child to eat vegetables and fruits has become a battle, get them involved in choosing healthy food by creating a collage of fruits and veggies. This will help them learn about new foods while embracing their inner artist.

What you'll need

* Cooking and food magazines
* Cardboard or poster board
* Scissors
* Glue or a glue stick


How it works
Ask your child what healthy foods they like to eat, and look through the magazines together to find pictures of those vegetables, fruit, or grains. Ask them to pick out items that they like the least and explain why those are good to include in their diet.

Help your child to cut out the pictures and glue them on the poster board arranging items by color. Then hang their masterpiece on the fridge as an easy reminder of what foods are good to eat, or head out to your local farmers market and have your child pick out foods they want to try that are on their poster.
