Snack well
Kids love to snack, and it's important to keep nutritious options on hand for when
hunger strikes - it helps them avoid emergency vending machine stops. Stock your
pantry with healthier snacks like GoGo squeeZ applesauce pouches. These fridge-free
pouches, made from natural ingredients, are easy to grab on the way to soccer
practice, music lessons or the playground. They're also an easy lunchbox addition!
Adjust the attitude
Mental wellness is part of overall wellness. Keep in mind the power of a positive
attitude toward education. Encourage kids to look at issues from different angles,
appreciate diversity and be resilient. Have conversations with children and truly listen
to their concerns to build trust and solve problems.
Finally, it's the adult role models in a
child's life that really set them up for
success.
"If you model healthy habits, your child is likely to follow your lead," says Segrave-
Daly. "Try to routinely eat well, sleep well, exercise and have conversations about the
good and bad parts of your day. Your kids are paying attention even when it seems like
they aren't!"
