“Let’s Learn About New and Healthy Foods!” Nutrition Education in Childcare: Providers’ Motivators, Facilitators and Barriers
National childhood obesity prevention policies recommend that childcare providers educate children about nutrition by engaging their senses through books, posters and hands-on activities.
