Health Tips for Parents

• Make dinner time a family time - When everyone sits down together to eat, there is

a lesser chance of children eating the wrong foods or snacking too much. Get your

kids involved in cooking and planning meals. Everyone develops good eating habits

together and the quality time with the family will be an added bonus.

• Get the whole family moving - Plan time for everyone to get moving together. Take

walks, ride bikes, go swimming, do gardening or just play hide-and-seek outside.

Everyone will benefit from the exercise and the time spent together.

• Encourage healthy eating habits –

Provide plenty of vegetables, fruits, and whole-grain products.

Encourage your family to drink lots of water.

Limit sugar-sweetened beverages.

Serve reasonably-sized portions.

Ask them to read aloud. This helps the children to go slower, which gives them more time to

process what they read. This improves reading comprehension. They are not only seeing the

words, but hearing them, too. You can also take turns reading aloud.

Read to build fluency. To gain meaning from text and encourage reading comprehension, your

child needs to read quickly and smoothly. Reading familiar and simple books gives your child

practice.

Talk about what they are reading. This "verbal processing" helps him remember and think

through the themes of the book. Ask questions before, during, and after a session to encourage

reading comprehension.
