Book Reviews of Eat Healthy, Feel Great (Sears Children Library)
Book Review: Simple and Easy, yet Thorough and Motivating
Summary: 5 Stars
My kids and I love this book! I got this book when my kids were 3 and 5 years old. I thought it would be too much for my 3 year old, but wow was I mistaken! Despite his usual lack of attention span, he sat through me reading the entire book! Both him and my 5 year old daughter enjoyed listening to me read this book to them, while they looked at the gorgeous illustrations. My 5 year old was able to focus on most of what I was reading, and my 3 year old caught the key points. In fact, since reading this book, they often analyze their food choices and pick the green-light food instead of a red- or yellow-light food! Quite impressive!
I read this to my daughter's class each year (she's now 7, and in 1st grade). While I think this book would probably be best-appreciated by the older elementary grades (due to some of the more in-depth information that it has in the second half of the book), the kids in her class are still very responsive when I read this book to them! They love the easy-to-understand red/yellow/green-light concept of rating foods. And what's really fun is hearing them talk about it later in the school year! They really do remember how and why they might want to make a healthier choice in what they eat and drink!
When I read this to my daughter's class, as well as to my 2 kids, I remind them of the "moral of the story": that it's okay to eat yellow- and red-light foods occasionally, but that it's important to remember to eat LOTS of green-light foods for a healthy body. Nobody is going to eat perfectly - and that's totally fine! But it's nice to know what we should be striving for, and what choices are better than others. And this book gives you just the information you'd need to make that choice for yourself!
Summary of Eat Healthy, Feel Great (Sears Children Library)
The authors of the acclaimed Sears Parenting Library introduce two new books for young children to read with caregivers. Eat Healthy, Feel Great gives kids the tools to make their own wise food choices. Quick and easy recipes that kids can make with adult supervision are also included. You Can Go to the Potty clearly introduces the basic steps of toilet learning in a natural, non-pressured way. The text encourages a child's motivation in using the toilet, while offering tips to parents on developmental readiness. With concise and reassuring text and lively illustrations, these two books by the foremost authorities on attachment parenting are must haves.
