Snack Science Video Series
In response to COVID-19, HealthStart produced educational videos for children 3 to 8 years of age. This series builds on our award-winning Children's Health Education Workshop Series (CHEWs) program. The SSVS delivers fun, engaging, clear health-science lessons for the home or the classroom. As kids and their parents work their way through the videos, they will learn what they need to stay healthy and strong. Kids will also see how to cope with their feelings and discover yummy, good-for-you snack recipes. |
What Are YOU Feeding?
HealthStart's school nutrition education initiative supplies the materials to construct smart nutrition decisions. Our school meal menu analysis and graphics give students the tools to connect what they eat at school to their health. The program works in the cafeteria, classroom, or as part of a science curriculum. |
HEY! Curriculum
HealthStart's early pre- and elementary school curriculum sets the foundation for nutritional, physical, and social and emotional wellbeing. Children 3 to 6 years of age learn how their bodies work and what foods and activities keep them healthy and fit. |
Children's Health Education Workshop (CHEWS)
HealthStart's community-based health education workshops bring health and science lessons to life with science experiments, healthy snack "art," stories, and physical activities. HealthStart presents our CHEWS in person and can effectively adapt them to almost any setting. |
Monstralia (In Development)
HealthStart's mobile game app uses mini-games to help kids discover good health habits. Kids do this by teaching baby monsters on the Island of Monstralia how to eat well, keep fit, and take care of one another. |
HealthStart bases its approach on five core tenets
HealthStart takes a multi-pronged approach to accomplishing its mission by utilizing five innovative programs in a variety of settings. Each platform helps to reinforce our core concepts, ultimately helping children to realize that they have the power to be healthy for life.
