Nourishing Your Child: A Guide to Healthy Weight Gain
Parents, a well-nourished and energetic child is every bit a delight. At Vedictree Preschool, we understand the importance of maintaining your child’s ideal weight for their overall well-being.
Why Weight Matters:
Maintaining the ideal weight is crucial for a child’s energy levels and overall health.
Both overweight and underweight concerns can impact a child’s activity levels.
The Power of Right Food Choices:
Kids have a higher metabolic rate, requiring nutrient-dense, high-calorie foods.
Establishing a fixed eating schedule promotes healthy eating habits.
Vedictree’s Approach to Healthy Habits:
Inculcating good food habits in children begins with a routine and emphasis on fruits and vegetables.
Vedictree ensures children develop a daily routine for making healthy food choices.
