Nutrition Life skills

Nutrition Life skills

Help your children become their own food masters and empower them with knowledge on how to build lifelong healthy habits!

Nutrition is a central topic in our lives, yet many adults and children lack crucial information and struggle to create better-eating habits. Knowledge is power when it comes to nutrition and living a healthy life, which is why this course aims to empower young learners by giving them access to knowledge. This course, offered by Mireille Medhat-the founder of Beet It, provides a general framework of what makes food nutritious and a theoretical understanding of nutrition facts. Children will learn how to make healthier choices, read food labels, create a healthy relationship with food, eat everything in moderation and have a healthy body image and self-acceptance. Sessions will be hands-on, where students will engage in many activities and ultimately prepare simple, delicious foods that promote healthy and easy life habits.
