Nutrition Nazi

I apologize for being so picky with lunches this past week.  Part of the expectation across the board for Health as a curriculum is to promote and teach healthy eating.  If we are able to show and teach kids about healthy eating and they start to eat healthier they will have more energy, be ready and able to learn, sustain attention and have less mood swings.  I am expecting that lunches will contain fruits and vegetables as well as the other food groups.  I understand (as I am a parent too) that lunches are the last things on our brains some of the time but taking the time to pack a healthy lunch most of the time will pay off.  So, please send only one or two small "extras" to help with that.  Raising Healthy Eaters and  Super Healthy kids are two websites that I visit for more information and interesting  lunchtime and healthy eating ideas. Please feel to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you.
