​

Benefits:

​

• The workshops help children develop positive relationships with food – an essential for healthy eating.

• Early food experiences shape future food preferences and eating behaviours. By attending you help your child establish a preventive approach to good health. 

• The program incorporates evidence-based strategies that help children gain interest in foods and encourage them to want to explore foods for themselves, taking the pressure off everyone.

• Children gain knowledge, life skills and a greater appreciation for food.

• Cooking with your kids at home is fun, right!? Well, not everybody agrees. The sessions save you the planning, set-up and cleaning associated with food-related activities in the home.
