HOW TO DO IT

Print out the Food Guide Pyramid
Place one of each of the food groups in a six-cup muffin tin. One suggestion is:
- Grain: Whole grain crackers
- Fruit: 1 Box of NESTLÉ JUICY JUICE
- Vegetable: Carrot sticks
- Meat: Chicken leg or chicken tenders
- Milk/Dairy: Cheese slices
- Fats & Sweets: NESTLÉ GOOBERS, RAISINETS and/or SNO-CAPS
Use construction paper and a marker pen to label each food group.
Discuss each of the food groups as you serve this to your child it's a fun and educational lunch!

FOLLOW UP FUN

Label envelopes or small containers with the name of each of the 6 food groups. Have your child think of several foods that belong to each group and write them on small pieces of paper. Then, place them in their respective envelopes.
When it's lunchtime, have your child draw one item from each food group container.
This continues to reinforce healthy eating and keeps your child involved in the process.
