Focus On: A Healthy Lesson

With the help of FNP staff Billie Child and Marcia Cruse, 424 kindergarten and first grade students at Washington School (Dixon) learned about healthy breakfasts, MyPyramid, unhealthy picky eaters, and the origins of milk. For each lesson, students made several healthy foods and snacks including Bernie Bread's breakfast bagel, bunny dip, healthy breakfast sundae, and space pudding.
