Children’s Nutrition Curriculum

Recipe for Success teaches classes for children at elementary schools and Parks and Recreations Facilities in Guilford county, including, Northwood Elementary, Warnersville Recreation Center, Lindley Recreation Center. We also partner with High Point Library.

We use USDA approved curricula, including the OrganWise Guys, MyPlate for Kids, the Good for You Curriculum, Rainbow on My Plate, Start Smart Eating and Reading, and Eat Smart. Play Hard. These programs give children a better understanding of the MyPlate food groups, the importance of eating a heart-healthy, balanced diet, and the value in caring for our bodies.

To be sure that all of our participants are engaged in the learning experience, our Nutrition Educators supplement lessons with  exciting activities, including: coloring and craft opportunities, nutrition games, and fun incentives that support the continued nutrition education of the students, such as pedometers which count the steps they take as they  exercise.
