Explore the world of healthy eating (and cooking) with books, rhymes, songs and, of course, food! Each week, we'll explore a different type of food or meal and how to prepare it together. We'll even toss in some math and science activities and listen to stories that relate to the food we're learning about. It all adds up to a delicious time for everyone. Children or parents with a food allergy should call Youth Services Programming & Outreach at 566-0949 x 217 for more information.

Each letter features a corresponding yoga pose (A for airplane, L for lion, for example). The program also includes sign language words. This program is sure to spark learning of both language and body movement.
