Help Your Child Get Fit Not Fat
by Jan Hurst & Sue Hubberstey
Obesity is a growing problem with the numbers of people who are overweight or obese having more than doubled in the last thirty years – and children are by no means unaffected – it is estimated that up to 15% of children in the UK are overweight or obese. This is caused by a combination of lack of exercise and unhealthy diet. Parents are concerned for their children and want them to be fit and healthy but are confused about how to achieve this.
Help Your Child Get Fit Not Fat is a comprehensive guide that aims to help families create positive attitudes to food and exercise and thus promote fitness and health in children of all ages.
Topics covered include – How to establish good attitudes towards food and exercise during the early years, eating as a family, vegetarians and faddy eaters, and helping children deal with peer pressure and the media.
