Eating the Alphabet
|
Ages 1-5.
"From apples to zucchini, come take a look. Start eating your way through this alphabet book."
The pages of Eating the Alphabet
Beside teaching your child about the plentiful array of fruits and vegetables available from nature, I can see using this book as a nutrition activity for kids in the following way:
26 days to healthier eating
Every day focus on one letter of the alphabet and vow to eat 1 fruit or vegetable that begins with that letter. (It's fun for adults to play too!)
After 26 days, start all over again...
...this time vowing to eat a different fruit or vegetable from each "letter" group!
At the end of the book you'll find a detailed glossary of terms that includes pronunciation and tidbits of information about each fruit and vegetable.
Available as a picture book and in a smaller board book edition.
