How can I encourage healthy eating habits?

Showing your child how to eat healthily now maximizes their ability to make healthy choices as they get older. Here are some tips to encourage healthy eating habits:

  • Keep a bowl of fruit handy for snacks.
  • Sit together as a family at mealtimes, without any screens.
  • Make healthy foods fun, for example by cutting fruit or sandwiches into interesting shapes.
  • Serve a variety of seasonal fruits and vegetables.
  • Learn together about how different foods are grown.
  • Let your children help with food shopping and preparation and try new foods and recipes together.

Limit the amount of junk food you keep in the house.
