We’re excited to announce the release of a new educational manual designed to support preschool staff in promoting healthy eating habits among young children. This comprehensive guide, now available for free download, is offered in English, Macedonian, and Albanian.
Early childhood is a crucial stage of development, where balanced nutrition plays a key role in shaping a child’s physical growth, cognitive abilities, and emotional well-being. Recognizing this, the manual provides essential insights into the importance of healthy eating and offers practical strategies for educators, caregivers, and parents to foster nutritious habits in preschool environments.
Developed by experts in nutrition, public health, and child development, alongside experienced kindergarten practitioners, the manual is structured into two main sections. The first part delves into the fundamentals of children’s dietary needs, including recommended nutrient intake, the impact of unhealthy eating patterns, and tips for planning balanced meals. The second section equips educators with engaging teaching strategies and interactive activities to help children and their families embrace healthier food choices.
This resource aims to empower kindergartens with the knowledge and tools to create a supportive environment for lifelong healthy eating habits. Whether used in classrooms or in collaboration with parents, the manual serves as a valuable asset for those committed to early childhood well-being.
