Teach your child healthy eating

• If your child is able to touch and taste food at the same time as learning about its nutritional value, the information is more likely to sink in. Plus it can also lead to a liking for new foods.

• You can find lots of useful information by logging on to sainsburys.co.uk, clicking on the Food Ideas link in the Food & Drink section and then ‘healthy lifestyle’.

• Check out the British Nutrition Foundation education site, foodafactoflife.org.uk, for fun games and healthy eating and recipe resources for school-age children and their teachers.
