We Can! EatPlayGrow: Creative Activities for a Healthy Start (Curriculum)

The EatPlayGrow curriculum combines the latest science and research from the NIH with CMOM's creative educational approach to teach kids and their parents how to make healthy nutrition and physical activity choices that are fun and easy to include in daily routines. The new program was adapted from the We Can! Energize Our Families Parent Program curriculum, which was originally geared to children ages 8-13. EatPlayGrow's interactive and engaging lessons incorporate art-making, storytelling, music and movement activities into fun, hands-on educational lessons about the importance of making positive choices in areas that most affect health: nutrition, physical activity, and sleep. Sections of the curriculum designed for parent distribution are also included in Spanish.
