Eat The Rainbow!

OH Support Group Leader Joanne (Hambear) is very active in the cause of childhood obesity.  I've told her that our school district is working to combat childhood obesity.  I wanted to share with her and you their latest promotion for fruits and vegetables.  I've never thought of eating the rainbow but it is a fabulous idea for our kids AND us as post-ops!! Here is the announcement: EAT THE RAINBOW!!! Lunch on January 31st We have an exciting day coming soon.  On Thursday, we will be encouraging students to "Eat The Rainbow!"  When students eat fruits and vegetables of different vibrant colors they are ensuring their bodies of excellent nutrition.  To have fun eating the rainbow, our lunch room will look a little different on Thursday: *A sous chef from the Hilton will be assisting dietary and culinary students from College of the Ozarks with cooking a snack for all of our students. *Our very own student chefs from our Nutrition Advisory Council will be helping. *The lunch room will be decorated to reinforce "Eat The Rainbow." *Students will be viewing a fun entertaining video on getting "Five A Day." We'll all have fun Eating the Rainbow together! Great idea! Cathy www.LoseWeightFindLife.com

What is at the end of the Rainbow a picture of YOU. If so send me one.

Cathy, Thanks for the information. This sounds like a great ideal to me. I will bring it up to our school and see what they are doing. I know we do the 5-3-1 and almost none campaign  here. All our kids know it. It is presented in schools, Dr's office and everywhere you go. I which all this education was available when I was a kid.  Childhood obesity is growing so fast in this country. What are we doing to our kids ?? It has to start at home. See all lighter. Joanne
