WCNY presents WiCkNeY Kids Eat Smart workshop for children and parents

WCNY hosts a free one-hour “WiCkNeY Kids Eat Smart” workshop for children in grades one through three and their parents or grandparents at 10 a.m. Nov. 17, at WCNY located at 506 Old Liverpool Road in Liverpool.

Participants will enjoy entertaining and educational activities as they learn about nutrition, including information about the food pyramid, choosing the right foods and learning how WCNY’s children’s television programming can help with healthy eating choices. Participants will sample and make their own tasty and healthy treats, and take the recipes with them to make at home.

WCNY hosts the workshop in an effort to promote good nutrition and reduce childhood obesity in partnership with the PBS national “Eat Smart!” program. “Eat Smart!” incorporates healthy eating themes and storylines into its children’s programming and encourages families with young children to make healthy eating choices in a fun and interactive way.

Pre-registration is required by Nov. 10 and space is limited. To register, please call (315) 453-2424 or visit http://bit.ly/UkRCFp.
