Change4Life has put together 6 tips for giving your child the best start to eating healthily and getting active.
Try and make time for 3 regular meals every day.
Remember kids tummies are smaller than grown-ups so they don’t need the same amount of food.
Swap food and drink that is high in added sugar to no added or sugar free versions.
Regular, healthy snacks really help kids grow and develop well.
Make sure they get a variety of at least 5 portions of fruit and veg every day.
Help your kids to have lots and lots of time to play and run about.
