Kid's Nutrition....


Are you late on time and just grab a Happy Meal at McDonalds a few days a week for your children? A happy meal has 550 calories with no drink. I soda is 210 calories and a shake would be an extra 390 calories. Plus there is over 30 grams of fat. Happy meals don't sound so happy anymore do they?
Here is a calorie intake chart, how much should your child be eating?......

This can also vary with how active or not active your child is.

Often times our children will learn their eating habits from us, weather they are good or bad. That puts a whole lot of stress on us as parents to eat whats right. Can you tell your child they need to eat their veggies if you don't? Click HERE for some nutrition ideas for your kids.
