Nutritional & Exercise Resources

Healthy Active Living for Families (HALF)
Healthy Active Living for Families (HALF) is a program of the American Academy  of Pediatrics (AAP). The goal of the project is to partner with parents to  encourage healthy habits right from the start. This web site is geared for  children birth through age 5 years.

HealthyChildren.org – Nutrition
HealthyChildren.org is the only parenting Web site backed by 60,000  pediatricians committed to the attainment of optimal physical, mental, and  social health and well-being for all infants, children, adolescents, and young  adults. The specific nutritional choices you and your youngster make are  crucial. Good nutrition is essential to good health and the American Academy of  Pediatrics encourages parents to think of their nutritional decisions as health decisions.

HealthyChildren.org – Fitness 
There’s no scarcity of activities that you can make available to your child, and  all kids can find some form of exercise that they enjoy. If you can get your  child interested in an activity like this when he’s young, exercise and fitness  are more likely to become a habit that lasts for many decades.

HealthyChildren.org – ChopChop Magazine
ChopChop, the fun cooking magazine for kids and families, entices 5-12 year olds  with headlines like, ‘Food Fight’, ‘Scrumptious Wordsearch’ and ‘Watermelon  Mush.’ But the underlying message is more serious – cooking and eating healthy  is an important, lifelong skill. A free copy of the magazine is available at Middleboro Pediatrics.

Eating Healthy. Growing Strong. 
The Alliance for a Healthier Generation and the American Academy of Pediatrics  have joined with the best-selling children’s book The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle to help families learn about healthy eating habits.
