November – Healthy Eating Workshop

Workshop Description – Happy Body, Happy Brain – Healthy Eating Magic!

A playful and meaningful class that helps children build a healthy relationship with food — learning that what we eat becomes our energy, our mood, and our mind.
Through storytelling, try-out experiments, games, and body–mind awareness activities, children discover how food affects their strength, mood, focus, and studies.

What We Do

Students explore healthy eating through:

• Sugar Experiment – how “too much” becomes harmful (bowl + sugar)

• Energy Test Game – slow food vs. fast sugar comparison

• Body Listening Practice – “How does my stomach feel?” awareness

• Junk Food Puppet Story – temptation vs. choice

• Healthy Plate Sorting Game – fruits, grains, veggies, proteins

• Gratitude Bite & Mindful Eating – smell, chew, taste, slow-bite magic

What Children Learn

Physical Awareness:
– Food is fuel — it gives us power for sports, studies & play
– Water, fruits & home food keep the body strong

Emotional Understanding:
– Sugary snacks give a short “happy jump” but a long “tired crash”
– Eating together builds love, sharing, and family connection

Mental Skills:
– Healthy food = sharp brain & better memory
– Junk overload = sleepy, distracted, low focus

Self-Discipline:
– “Sometimes food” vs. “Everyday food”
– I choose what goes inside my body

Why This Matters for Schools

Children who eat well:

• focus longer during lessons

• show better moods and fewer tantrums

• participate actively in sports and activities

• have improved immunity, fewer sick days, and better academics

A well-fed mind is a learning mind.

Dress Code

Children come wearing red, green, or yellow — colours of fruits & veggies!
