- Summary:
-
The purpose of this brightly illustrated guide is to teach 7-10 year old children that all healthy Americans, 2 years of age or older, should eat in a way that is low in saturated fat and cholesterol so as to help reduce the risk of heart disease. The theme reflected throughout the manual is that changes in eating patterns help lower blood cholesterol levels and prevent heart disease in adulthood. The booklet emphasizes the following concepts: (1) things that might cause heart problems are high blood pressure, smoking, and weighing too much; (2) eat right for a healthy heart, get plenty of exercise, and do not start to smoke; (3) a healthful diet is a balanced diet which is low in saturated fat and cholesterol; (4) different foods provide different nutrients--what a balanced diet looks like; and (5) food groups to choose and food groups to decrease. Learning activities are provided for: various food groups and dairy products low in saturated fat and cholesterol; planning meals; separating the food groups in one dish meals; the importance of breakfast; planning a bag lunch; and the value of snacks. Activities are carried out through coloring, puzzles, connecting the dots, and games. (LL)
