Healthy - having or indicating good health in body or mind; free from infirmity or disease.

Discuss the word " Healthy” with your child.   Healthy choices and healthy living are an important part of one’s personal success and enjoying one’s life in general.  Teaching our children to make healthy choices is essential to their short-term and long-term well being.  Share the healthy foods, ideas, and words with your child.  More importantly choose healthy ideas, nutrition, and words for yourself as well. Excellent health is one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves and the people we love.  Enjoy being healthy!
