You can make healthy habits fun by creating games, songs, call and responses, dances etc. You can also make them more fun by being a part of the experience by participating yourself, some kids think its fun and cool to do and act as the adult in the room does.

Learning about the types of food that are good and bad for you, like the food pyramid making a game out of it, cutting fruits and foods into fun shapes and learning about fun fitness games.

USING SONS CAN HELP ENGAGE CHILDREN TO CONSUME HEALTHY SNACKS OR EVEN BY EATING WITH CHILDREN AND SHOWING THEM THE IMPORTANCE OF NUTRIENTS PRESENTED IN FRUITS AND VEGETABLES

Some ideas for making healthy habits fun would be:

do theme food (colors, shapes, etc.)

play active games that get their bodies moving (simon says, freeze dance, etc).

make up songs about healthy activities and sing them while doing those activities.

We make healthy habits into a game to make it fun. We also sing songs about the things we should be doing like washing our hands and brushing teeth.

[Nicole]

Absolutely! You can add fun by using music or movements to make the activities enjoyable

Healthy habits can be fun by making it into a silly song with possible actions to go along with it. Or make rhyming words for the healthy habit. Also by laughing and smiling!
