“Grow Strong! A Book About Healthy Habits” by Cheri J. Meiners, illustrated by Elizabeth Allen

As we revisit the topic of self care with the children, “Grow Strong! A Book About Healthy Habits,” by Cheri J. Meiners and illustrated by Elizabeth Allen, is a helpful resource to give an overview of the ways we take care of our bodies. Building healthy habits at an early age makes it easier to maintain a healthy routine as we grow. Moving our bodies, getting outside for fresh air and sunshine, drinking plenty of water, eating nutritious foods, and getting enough rest are all critical needs for bodies of all ages! Talk as a family about which healthy habits are already part of your routine, and which you may add more of into each day.
