“To eat is necessary, but to eat intelligently is an art” To teach about the importance of food and nutrition, we had a food fiesta and green day for our children. The eating habits established now impact food habits and health later in life. Toddlers and Pre-schoolers need adequate intake in order to achieve full growth and development potential. Undernutrition impairs children’s cognitive development as well as their ability to explore their environments. Long term effects of malnutrition may be prevented or reduced with sufficient nutrition and ecological support.
