There are so many efforts contributing to the movement of healthier children - thank you! Our products are a positive prompt that is fun and easy for children to use. Color-coded bracelets are worn by children to track their eating and exercise decisions throughout the day. Instead of reaching for a soda we remind them to grab water. They can move a band when they reach for an apple instead of a bag of chips! Let's make HEALTHY a HABIT!

As a district who is having major finacial problems, is it possible to make a switch to fresh, natrual lunches without increasing budget cost? The food served at our school as you can see in the link provided
http://www.cfisd.net/dept2/food/default.htm meets the standards for nutrition set by the Food Service Department, yet many children in the school have weight problems and others do not even eat the meals provided by the school. The food is not very appetizing, and it is not a unusual to see pools of oil floating in the pizza, wilted pre-packaged vegetables, stale bread, and children resorting to asking their friends to buying them extra food from the snack bar (since the district has a limit on how much junk food each child can eat per day). I, as a parent, and emailing you this with my child's school email and Instructorss name provided, so hopefuly you can help her address some of the issues I have brought up, as well as circulate the information around the district.
Thank You,
Nury Whitford
