Nutrition Education on the Internet

• Healthy Child Eating Education On-line
It's fun, convenient and easy to use. Learn more about childhood feeding issues and healthy meals and snacks. Ask your local WIC agency if this can count as a nutrition education session.

Healthy Hints

• Healthy Hints for Pregnant Women
Give your baby a great start in life. What you eat, the amount of weight you gain and the healthy things you do during your pregnancy can help your baby for its entire life. Your energy and nutrient needs are certainly greater when you are pregnant, but being pregnant does not mean you have to eat twice as much. Most pregnant women only need about 300 extra calories daily

Smart Moves

• Smart Moves When Feeding Your Baby
The American Academy of Pediatrics says that breastmilk is the best milk for babies during their first year. Whether you chose to feed your baby breastmilk or formula, know that you are giving them the best nutrition they can have to grow and develop. Feeding time is a special time to bond with your baby. You show your baby your love and care.

• Feeding Your Toddler
During the toddler period, your child will continue to develop his or her sense of autonomy. At times, young children may refuse to eat certain foods or get "stuck" on a specific food. This is only a phase and even a way of asserting themselves. As long as your child does not refuse all foods of the same food group, it will be ok.
