USDA launched the Eating Smart and Playing Hard campaign and can be access at:

http://www.fns.usda.gov/eatsmartplayhardeducators/.

Here you will find tips and suggestions on eating smart and playing hard for the continual growth and development of your children. When healthy eating habits and regular physical activities are instilled early in childhood, it can promote a lifetime of healthy choices. It also encourages families and caregivers to plan meals and regular physical activities, which are great ways to prevent obesity and support cognitive development. If you log on to the website, you can track your family’s nutritional intake and exercise.

This year we have great menus that offer high nutrients, and a variety of foods to broaden children’s food experience! This program year will promote Eating Smart and Playing Hard! Upcoming is National Healthcare Food Service Week October 5th thru October 11th.
