HealthStart Foundation has developed a nine volume curriculum, Health Education for Youngsters! (HEY!). Units 1-5 focus on the biological sciences and 6-9 on  environmental sciences. Units 1-5 teach children how their bodies work, the food needed to nourish each part of their body and the types of fitness and play to keep each part strong.  The environmental units place an emphasis on the link between a child’s health and the health of the world around them.

Within each unit we include lessons that also lay the foundation for social and emotional health so that every child can reach their full potential. Together our science, nutrition, fitness, and social and emotional lessons give children the tools they need to make good decisions about their health and caring for their planet.

HEY! is intended for children ages 3-6. The health science concepts are presented in a manner that is easy for educators to use and simple for children to understand. By using games, circle time and hands-on activities, HEY! takes students on a journey that lays the foundation for life long well-being.  Take a look at our Testimonials page to see what teachers are saying about HEY!
