Nutrition

Tipsheets & Publications
Providers receive a newsletter four times a year, with the latest information on nutrition research, seasonal foods and nutritious recipes. We also provide information on physical activity, children's storybooks and Farmers' Markets.
Curriculum
Age-appropriate and culturally relevant materials are available to Early Childhood Education Providers, in these multiple nutrition related subject areas; basic nutrition, food safety & sanitation, childfeeding, gardening and physical activity.
Workshops
The Nutrition Education Training Academy has designed a series of workshops that takes providers through a highly interactive learning process. The simple hands-on activities can be replicated in the classroom. A "Train the Trainers" manual contains five modules with interrelated subject areas designed to provide a solid knowledge base in basic nutrition, food safety and sanitation, child feeding practices, gardening and physical activity.
