Field Trip #9: Healthy Eaters


I just found this on www.fieldtripfactory.com:

"The Healthy Eaters™ field trip is designed to reinforce the nutrition and healthy living curricula taught in schools. At your local Albertsons and Acme or Giant food stores, children will have a fun experience in a real life environment that will help prepare them to make healthy choices each day of their lives.

The FREE Healthy Eaters field trip will help children in grades Pre-K - 6 develop and enhance skills in:

* Healthy living and nutrition
* Good oral healthcare practices
* Physical fitness
* Decision making

Trained tour leaders modify the field trips to be grade appropriate. The field trips are 60-90 minutes in length and are limited to 30 participants per tour – although this number may vary by location.

Trip amenities include:

* Free samples of healthy foods and beverages.
* Free student goodie bags with souvenirs from their trip."

I booked a tour online this morning for my daughters and their preschool aged friends. It's easy to do, just go to www.fieldtripfactory.com and register.
If you try this let us know how it goes!
