LESSONS THAT LAST A LIFETIME
Some kids are so used to eating junk, they don't know what nutritious foods
look like! Lisa Kingery developed a program in New York City in which kids
learn to cook good foods in class with their teacher. Tirikia Townes, 8, of P.S.
38 learned to make a sweet snack: Dip apples in peanut butter and add raisins
on top. She liked it so much, she served it, instead of candy, at a party at
home. Says Kingery: "That's planting the seed for healthy living!"
