How it worksEspañol

 

  • The entire family participates in a series of eight, hour and a half sessions.
  • Three groups are formed to allow for hands-on, age-appropriate activities at each session
    • La Familia—adults
    • Los ninos—from 3 to 7 years old
    • Los chicos—from 8 to 12 years old
  • Every session reinforces four key messages:
    • Eat foods from each of the food groups every day.
    • Be sensible about portions.
    • Be physically active every day.
    • Take small steps for success.
  • Every session provides experiences and tips that promote:
    • Healthier food choices compatible with the lifestyle and cuisine of Latino families.
    • Fun physical activities for the entire family.
    • Discussion on the concept of “energy balance.”
    • Cultural heritage and lifestyle connections to wellness.
