The Healthy Lunchbox |
According to the Government's nutritional standards, a child's lunch should contain at least one portion each of fruit and veg, protein (meat or alternative), dairy products and starchy food, such as bread or pasta. But a survey by the Food Standards Agency found that nine out of ten children still take packed lunches to school that contain too much saturated fat, sugar and salt.
The Healthy Lunchbox is full of suggestions and ideas to help you provide your child with an appetizing and appealing meal each day.
It will explain why many lunchboxes are unhealthy, what a healthy lunch should consist of and what children and adults of different ages should have (size of portions etc).

HEALTHY FOOD for HAPPY KIDS:
an a-z of nutritional know-how for the well-fed family |
Recent research shows that 58% of 8 year olds can't identify pictures of basic fruits and vegetables such as melon, sweetcorn and cauliflower. As our hectic lifestyles allow less and less time for cooking and feeding our children, and there's so much junk food winking attractively at us from supermarket shelves, our children's health is suffering. In fact, children had a better diet in the 1950s.
In ‘HEALTHY FOOD for HAPPY KIDS’, Suzannah Olivier answers all parents' questions on feeding their children and offers hundreds of ways to make good nutrition fun. In an accessible A-Z format, Suzannah answers such questions as 'What can I do about my fussy child?’, 'I don't have time to cook every day, how can I feed my child healthily?', 'Is my child's behaviour related to his diet?' and 'Can my child's allergy be helped with food?'
She also includes invaluable charts to help parents with the nutrition minefield: lunchbox planners; healthy picnic and barbecue ideas; and ten healthy home versions of fast food - even burgers! ‘HEALTHY FOOD for HAPPY KIDS’ will help every parent address the eternal headache of feeding their child well.
