Virtual Goodie Foodie at Chitkara International School

Eating a variety of foods keeps children’s meals interesting and flavourful. It’s also the key to a healthy and balanced diet because each food has a unique mix of nutrients—both macronutrients and micronutrients. Thus, to help educate and encourage the students of Chicklets to Cygnets to eat well, Chitkara International School has scheduled a Virtual Goodie Foodie Week from 9th to10th December 2020. Each class has been given a different theme ranging from Rainbow Fruit Snack, Alphabetic Food Snack, Creative Food Snack to Carbo-Protein Snack.

For the activity, the child with the help of parents will make the dish as per the theme and keep it beside him/her in the online session. Later, the facilitator of the session will have a small interaction with the child about the nutritional value of the ingredients that have been used to prepare the dish. The activity aims to inspire students to make the right & healthy selection of meals and snacks and further facilitate the teaching of healthy eating behaviours to children in a joyful way.
