The Healthy Eating Unit teaches children the difference between “grow foods” that their bodies need for energy and growth, and “fun foods” that taste good but don’t fuel their bodies. They will also receive a basic introduction to food groups. Children will learn to identify healthy foods and develop motivation to try them.
Cahoots KidFit lessons are designed to introduce movement and health principles to children ages 3-7 (preschool - 1st grade). They are used in schools, preschools, fitness facilities, dance studios, homeschool groups, and community recreation programs. Perfect for group settings (big or small), our lessons foster both social and emotional learning.
This lesson plan is customizable in length and frequency. You decide how long (up to 60 minutes per class) and how many (1 to 5 classes per week).
The HEALTHY EATING Unit is unit #7 in the Semester Set. However, Cahoots KidFit units are interchangeable and can be done in any order.
