🌱 Healthy Bodies Week at A Place To Grow Wingate! 🥦🦷
Our little explorers spent this week learning all about taking care of the bodies that help us run, climb, and play in nature every day!
Here’s a look at our hands-on week:
✂️ Veggie Chefs: Practice with child-safe knives gave us a chance to practice fine motor skills while chopping up fresh veggies for a colorful, healthy rainbow lunch.
🦷 Bright Smiles: We practiced proper brushing techniques on our monster smile models to keep our teeth strong and healthy.
🧩 Food Group Fun: Matching games helped us sort nourishing whole foods and learn what fuels our growing muscles.
🍽️ Mindful Table Manners: We gathered together to practice saying "please" and "thank you," sharing meals, and enjoying conversation as a community.
When children connect where their food comes from and how their bodies work, healthy choices become a natural part of their everyday rhythm.
👉 Parents: What was your child's favorite healthy snack this week? Let us know in the comments!
