The Balance Rainbow Plate for Kids is a fun and engaging way to illustrate the components of a healthy and balanced diet for your children, while also teaching proper portion sizes and not overeating.
Bright and colorful graphics inspire healthy food choices, while each of the plate's four divisions provide about one serving of 1/2 cup of food.
Your kids will strive to "put a rainbow of foods on their plate,"...with 1/4 of their plate being vegetables, 1/4 fruits, 1/4 whole grains, and 1/4 lean meats and/or proteins. Add 2-3 servings of low fat milk and/or dairy daily for all of the nutrition vital to your kids' growing needs.
"The Balance Rainbow Plate will teach your kids how to balance their plate and eat a rainbow of foods!"
Eat, live, and be in balance!
The Yin Yang symbol has inspired people for ages to live long, vigorous, well-balanced lives. Moderation in all aspects of life is key, and that goes beyond merely diet. You can live life to the fullest if you nurture the different facets that make up the dynamic symmetry of life. Understand and embrace the concepts of balance and moderation that the Yin Yang symbol represents.
Seek balance in work and play, exercise and rest, and emotional and physical needs. Concentrating solely on your work may likely lead to eroding friend and family relationships. Likewise, over-extending yourself to loved ones may leave you exhausted and preoccupied at work. Remember that adequate rest is equally important as exercise in your day...too much of one is not beneficial for the other. Know that devoting yourself to physical/material things can make you long for true meaning. Value, discover, and cultivate who you truly are as a person physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Using the plate will be your daily gentle remembrance.
