*A Museum offers free nutrition kits to state's Title 1 elementary schools*
Stepping Stones Museum for Children is offering all Title 1 public elementary schools throughout Connecticut its Healthyville Adventures in Nutrition Kits for free. These kits are available through the generosity of a $100,000 grant from People's United Community Foundation. The kits are part of Stepping Stones' statewide "Healthy Children, Healthy Communities" initiative, launched in December 2006, to improve wellness and healthy behavior among children and families.
The Healthyville Adventures in Nutrition Kits, targeted for children in kindergarten through second grade, include learning activities, games and materials about food groups, serving sizes, where food comes from, making healthy snacks, food allergies and more. The kits align with Connecticut's nutrition, science and math curriculum standards.
Schools can receive their free Healthyville Adventures in Nutrition Kit by contacting Kim Kuta at (203) 899-0606 x235 or kim@steppingstonesmuseum.org.
