Nourish Interactive games and health tools have helped my family to eat healthier foods,
I struggled with my twins who have been overweight, it is hard because they just can't eat unhealthy and fattening foods that their friends eat or they really gain weight.
After playing the games about eating healthy and the food pyramid game they are learning why it is important to choose foods that will make them feel good and be healthy, they are really connecting what they learn online with playing the games and are making better eating habits. I have noticed that they have learned and they think it is fun. it is working wonders - they have both lost some weight!
They remember what they learned online, even sometimes teaching other kids - or me- about what they know. This is good because the approach is to give positive messages about body image and healthy messages using friendly characters.
they also seem to look forward to the next kids 'nutrition story' every month
I have often used the tools to learn about their bmi with the kids bmi calculator, plus some easy tips to try at home and the parenting nutrition newsletter emailed to me every month is great, and its free!
