Child care programs can encourage healthy eating among children through four strategies: (1) Nutrition Education: organizing workshops and distributing materials to children and parents; (2) Role Modeling: providers eating nutritious foods themselves; (3) Incorporating Variety: creating weekly menus with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and dairy; (4) Engaging Food Experiences: making mealtime interactive and enjoyable.
