Healthy Homes

Fighting childhood obesity and raising happy, healthy children takes more than just physical activity. At Head Start Body Start, we believe in a multi-layered approach that includes:

  • Daily active play and movement opportunities
  • Healthy nutrition
  • Reduced screen time (TV, video games, computer, etc.)

Healthy Homes is content-rich resource designed to promote healthy lifestyles for young children and their families. It includes a fun movement activity, nutrition message and healthy recipe and is sure to be a hit with families and early childhood professionals alike. Feel free post Healthy Homes on bulletin boards, send home in backpacks or feature in newsletters.
