Positive Nutrition Experiences For Children In Child Care Ph.D., Human Development and family Studies, College of Sciences, University of missouriColumbiaBecause in children's attitudes toward health and nutrition. http://missourifamilies.org/features/childcarearticles/childcare2.htm
Extractions: Because children spend so much time in child care settings, these programs play an important role in children's attitudes toward health and nutrition. Positive nutrition and health experiences for young children focus on: providing nutritious foods, effectively arranging the eating environment, and appropriate adult behavior during meals. Foods Served Adult responsibility for child health and nutrition begins with providing a variety of nutritious foods. When a child attends child care for 8 or more hours per day, caregivers should seek to meet two-thirds of the child's nutritional needs with snacks and mealtimes (Nahikian-Nelms, 1997). Mealtime Environment Snacks and meals can be served in different ways. To promote children's learning about food and nutrition, experts recommend that children decide for themselves what to eat and how much to eat. Allowing children to make food selections and to serve themselves exercises children's small muscle coordination and helps them to regulate their own food intake. Experts also suggest that adults sit with children during snacks and meals and eat the same foods. To keep snacks and mealtimes fun, vary food presentation and mealtime routines. Three different variations include: family style, buffet style, and picnics. When making plans for snacks and meals, consider children's developmental abilities and needs.

Extractions: by Donna Cohen Ross A national outreach project called Start Healthy, Stay Healthy, spearheaded by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities in Washington, DC is helping early childhood programs move a step closer to providing low-income families with comprehensive services for their children. The project demonstrates how early childhood programs can use simple strategies that piggy-back on current intake and family assessment procedures to link eligible children with the health and nutrition benefits available through Medicaid and Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC). Start Healthy, Stay Healthy is now responding to requests for information and technical assistance from child care resource and referral agencies, child care centers, Head Start and other preschool programs across the country. Programs in Alabama, Arizona, California, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Virginia and Washington have expressed interest in launching outreach campaigns in their communities. In addition, 53 state and tribal Child Care and Development Block Grant administrators, as well as federal officials, attended a workshop about the project at the recent Administration for Children and Families National Child Care Conference, where a full day was devoted to making connections between early childhood and health programs.

Extractions: W hile rocking chair retirement may be great for some, an increasing number of retirees would rather enjoy their golden years in an environment that fosters activity and fun. No place on earth offers as many prospects for seniors to enjoy myriad activities, employment opportunities, a moderate cost of living, a low crime rate, scenic beauty, a mild climate and a chance to rub shoulders with some of their favorite stars than Branson, Missouri. Branson, known as the "Live Entertainment Capital of the World," is one of the fastest growing areas in the country for retirees. Ranked highly in studies commissioned by universities and private interest groups, Branson is sited for its unique combination of neon and nature provided at a moderate cost of living. With a population of just under 5,000 in the city and 60,000 in the two-county area, Branson offers a sense of community; a small town with homespun family values that appeals to many who grew up during a simpler time. However, as one of the country's leading entertainment destinations, these old-fashioned values are accompanied by an energizing air of excitement. Branson's almost never-ending rhythm of great entertainment gives active retirees a wide choice of entertainment options. Entertainment Opportunities The Branson/Lakes Area offers a wealth of entertainment opportunities perfect for retirees. For some being entertained means gaining discounted tickets to many of the more than 40 theaters and eighty shows. For others entertainment means arising before dawn for day of fishing for world-record trout and bass at the area's three lakes. Shopping at the three area outlet malls is a great way to spend time and save money. Others enjoy a daily outing with friends on the golf course. Those for whom lush rolling hills and spectacular vistas provide aesthetic enrichment, the Ozarks provide the perfect backdrop for a scenic drive or view to revel in from a picture window at home. For the active senior, Branson offers a diversity of activities not found at a planned community and an ease at which life can be enjoyed unavailable in larger cities.
