🥪 Healthy lunches don’t have to be complicated!

In honor of Every Kid Healthy Week, we’re reminding families that a balanced lunch can be both simple and delicious. Try including:

🍗 A protein to help kids grow
🍎 A fruit or vegetable for vitamins and fiber
🥛 A dairy option for strong bones
🌾 A whole grain for lasting energy
💧 Water to keep them hydrated

Think turkey roll-ups, cheese cubes, whole-grain crackers, berries, cucumber slices, yogurt, or even last night’s healthy leftovers. The best lunch is one your child will enjoy and actually eat!

Small, healthy choices can help our little frogs feel energized, focused, and ready to learn. 🐸💚

What is your child’s favorite healthy lunch? Share your ideas below!

🎒🦠 Back to school means new teachers, new friends…and lots of new germs!

Help your little frogs stay healthy and prevent illnesses from spreading with these simple habits:

🧼 Wash hands often with soap and water
🤧 Cover coughs and sneezes with a tissue or elbow
🙅 Avoid sharing drinks, utensils, and water bottles
💧 Stay hydrated and get plenty of sleep
🧴 Clean frequently touched items, including backpacks and lunchboxes
🏠 Keep children home when they are sick
💉 Stay up to date on recommended vaccines and checkups

A few healthy habits can make a big difference in keeping classrooms—and families—healthy all school year long! 🐸💚
