Back-to-School Power for Body and Mind
(firmenpresse) - MISSION, KS -- (Marketwired) -- 08/02/17 -- (Family Features) Nutritious, well-rounded meals are essential for growth and proper brain development. A complete midday meal also helps boost mental and physical power so kids can keep on learning until the afternoon bell rings.
It's not always easy to find new and appealing ideas to fuel kids' bodies and minds as they head back to school, but programs for families and educators such as the Power Your Lunchbox Pledge can help.
"Families are looking for ways to start the year on the right foot and the Power Your Lunchbox Pledge offers everything they need in one spot," said Trish James, vice president of Produce for Kids. "Families want to know their kids are receiving the right brain food to get them through the day. Our registered dietitian-approved meal inspiration, tips and ideas provide the foundation families need for success."
In addition to kid-tested, lunchbox-friendly recipe ideas, the program provides resources and lesson plans for educators who want to create activities to inspire healthy eating in the classroom. This year's program also includes a partnership with The World of Eric Carle, allowing students to win copies of his popular collection of children's books. Additionally, every online pledge results in a $1 donation to Feeding America programs that support families and children.
