Childhood obesity is a growing problem in America. "the percentage of obese children doubling from 6.5% in 1980, to 17.0% in 2006. Weight, nutrition, and physical activity are the main components to a child’s overall health.”(1) “When parents become too busy to cook meals in their homes, children learn poor eating habits and develop into unhealthy eaters.”(1) They will take what they learned at home and apply it to anywhere else that they eat. For example a child that drinks milk at dinner and sits with their family at dinner when asked what they want to drink when they are at a friend’s home will ask for milk because the child would associate milk with dinner. Children cannot make healthy choices of their own they need to be guided so

They also affect other things such as names and logos, if a company was to be making a product and selling it as PG tips then Unilever will be entitled to take the makers of the fake PG TIPS to court as they are the owners of the name and they sell and produce the product. Shareholders will care about this as if they were to be selling the product cheaper than they were then people will buy it after being misleading, this could harm the business as they think that PG TIPS has gone down in quality and they would also therefore lose sales. They would therefore potentially

This can be done by relating a healthy diet to activities which the child enjoys and recognizes. If a child asks why they should eat broccoli, one can answer by explaining that eating broccoli gives you more energy to run and jump. Because playing is an activity which children tend to enjoy, they will then relate the healthy food choice of ‘broccoli’ with pleasure. At all times a child ‘must be supported in developing and understanding of the importance of physical activity and making healthy choices in relation to food’(EYFS (2007) in Macleod – Brudenell, 2008, p70)

I would like to research on healthy eating for children under five years in early years. The reason why I would like to research on this topic is to enlighten children and help them take responsibility for their own personal health and well-being. However, the topic would also help parents to understand what healthy eating involve and how they can support their own children.

Diet Advice No. 3: Get your kids involved during mealtime. In particular, younger children are less likely to consume something that they have prepared themselves so let them help you prepare healthy meals such as sandwiches, smoothies, whole meal scones, fruit muffins, homemade burgers and fishcakes.

In the article “No lunch Left Behind”, they state,”When school districts allow fast-food snacks in the lunchroom they provoke widespread ire, and rightfully so” (P.4). Which is not right, for the students of the schools. They should have more organic, healthier foods instead of preheating tv-meals. Snacks that schools provide are unhealthy snacks, which is allowing children to choose unhealthy foods.

As reported by the President's Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition (2013), more than 23 million people in America live more than a mile away from a supermarket making it very time consuming for many people to have to make dinner after work when it can be prepared in a few minutes at a fast food restaurant. Also, if someone's parents eat very unhealthy, this will teach the kids that this is how they should. Just like the exercise, adults need to begin showing these kids what eating healthy can do for their body and their health. (President's Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition,2013

            Based off of previous research from the different articles, it is evident that both parent and child are highly uninformed of the dangers of poor eating habits and how those habits affect their life both now and in the future. If families were to receive proper food education, they are able to prevent numerous health risks that include high blood pressure, lack of energy and/or motivation, declining activity and task performance in the workplace or school, and are even able to prevent a decrease in life expectancy due to poor health. Although childhood obesity is at an all-time high and continues to rise, parents and children are seeking ways to lead a better life style and make

To respect and value children’s cultural background, I will make sure to have foods that are available from their culture and this also helps other children try out new foods that they might not have eaten before. There are many different ways you can involve families in selecting foods for their children. The main way to involve families is to ask them or send a letter/email that ask’s them what type of foods their child likes to eat, so that I can make sure to include their food in the class.
