Early childhood is an exciting time, your child is beginning to learn about themselves and the world around them. This is a time when he/she begins to develop habits that can affect them throughout their lives, especially when it comes to food and nutrition. While we want our children to learn the fundamentals to become lifelong achievers, we also want them to develop healthy habits to make healthy choices.

At KKLC we provide “Healthy Choices” a program that teaches the very young the importance of eating right and being physically active. The program includes “Let’s Move”, a physical fitness component and “Healthy Foods”, a nutrition awareness component Both programs utilize songs, poems, movement, and most of all fun (not to mention they are designed specifically for the youngest learner).

The benefits of our “Healthy Choices” program:

• Understand the health benefits of eating well and playing actively
• Ability to name some healthy foods
• Be more likely to try new foods, especially fruits and vegetables
• Take part in a variety of physical activities
• Be able to apply at home the lessons learned in school
