Raising kids is one of the toughest and most fulfilling jobs in the worldand the one for which you might feel the least prepared.A powerful example for your child is to be active yourself. You can set agood example by going for a walk instead of watching TV, playing a vid-eo game, or surfing the Internet. As parents, we want to keep our childrensafe from harm. Take steps to keep your children safe:1. Teach children how to cross the street safely2. Make sure they wear the right gears and equipment’s for sports3. Teach your child to memorize phone numbers4. Discuss the concept of strangers5. Teach your child where the home is6. Teach them the importance of being hygienic

Take the time to talk to your children about how certain food or physicalactivity may help them. For example, when going for your daily walk, dis-cuss how walking helps you feel better and is a fun way to spend time to-gether. It also offsets calories eaten and inactive time spent in front of TVscreens or computers. Speak up when you see unhealthy eating habits.You can also praise your children when they choose a healthy item likefruit or yogurt. Use comments like these: \"Great choice!\", \"I like thosetoo\" etc...Whether you have a toddler or a teen, here are seven best strategies to im-prove nutrition and encourage smart eating habits.1. Have regular family meals.2. Serve a variety of healthy foods and snacks.3. Be a role model by eating healthy yourself.4. Importance of drinking water5. Involve kids in the cooking pro-cess.6. Avoid Sugary Drinks7. Limit Screen TimeBest Regards,Jimmy Joseph

In addition, I want to say special thanks to theclass teacher of KG-2 E for providing extra effortsfor the amazing improvement in my son.
