Red Light, Green Light, Eat Right

Early Childhood Nutrition Curriculum

The Healthy Iowa Communities Initiative uses intentional messaging to inform, create behavior change, and advocate for changes in public and private policies to make the healthy choice the easy choice in Northeast Iowa.

The curriculum will help join a diverse group of health providers, educators and organizations to plan, implement and sustain communication avenues to promote healthy eating and physical activity. We want to engage and empower people in the health culture to be messengers for healthy lifestyles choices.

The curriculum lessons below were designed for preschool and early childhood settings. Visit www.healthykidstoday.com for more ideas.

The grant project was made possible from funds that were granted to the  Winneshiek County Board of Health from the Iowa Department of Public Health.  Read a story about this program.
