Current research suggests that a growing number of children are overweight and spending less time in active play and exercise. As a result, there is increasing community awareness of the need to establish healthy eating and exercise habits in early childhood. In this series, we take a playful look at fruit and vegetables. During the week we feature a fresh fruit and vegetable store and a Farm Calendar that includes many different types of fruits and vegetables. We also include stories, songs and cooking experiences that highlight good health through a playful approach to diet and exercise. We encourage children and their families to use these experiences to explore the smells, textures and tastes of different fruit and vegetables.
