Tips to manage obesity in kids
Promote portion control
Prepare enough meals for everyone and store leftovers in the refrigerator or freezer to prevent overeating.
Plan ahead for healthy snacks
Collaborate with children to prepare healthy snack bags for school, ensuring ready-to-eat vegetables and fruits.
Pay attention to the body's hunger and satiety clues
Encourage children to recognize body signals for eating and stopping when satisfied, avoiding extreme feelings of starvation and stuffedness.
Get active as a family
Create family time with active activities like walks, sports, and outdoor exploration.
Make simple changes to your family's daily routine
This can be as easy as taking the stairs, parking at the furthest spot, or getting off the bus a stop earlier and walking the rest of the way.
