Summer’s easier pace and family focus offer the perfect opportunity to help the whole clan develop some healthier habits. How?

• Be a healthy role model. Children mimic what they see.
• Keep a discreet eye on eating and activity patterns. Mentally note any unhealthy trends.
• Offer healthy family meals, enjoyed together.
• Don’t nag, lecture or emphasize appearance.
• Schedule bicycling, swimming and other fun family activities.
• If you have questions about your child’s health or weight, see your pediatrician.
