Order the Healthy Body Image: Teaching Kids to Eat and Love Their Bodies Too! curriculum guide for your school or children's group.

Healthy Body Image: Teaching Kids to Eat and Love Their Bodies Too! is a comprehensive curriculum guide, designed to prevent body image, eating and weight concerns before they start.

Eleven engaging, cross curricular lessons are adaptable for any age, pre-school through adult, but are scripted for upper elementary school children in grades 4 through 6. Based on the Model for Healthy Body Image Building Blocks, lessons promote the development of healthy, realistic body images, eating well and physical activity while serving as antidotes that help children to resist unhealthy cultural myths and pressures regarding body image and eating.

Many teachers see the need for prevention initiatives in upper elementary school, but don't have time for another "add-on" curriculum. They like Healthy Body Image because the lessons fit into existing science, social studies, health, literature, and art classes.

Healthy Body Image is the first of its kind to demonstrate positive measured outcomes (click on Research for details), and is recommended by the U.S. Office on Women's Health BodyWise Packet for Middle School Educators (click on Links for further information).
