On October 23, Mount Sinai South Nassau's Food & Nutrition team visited Lynbrook Kindergarten Center, where 190 curious kindergarteners explored new foods, learned about nutrition, and discovered how fun healthy eating can be!
Students rotated through four exciting Healthy Eating stations:
Building a Healthy Plate
Food Groups & Healthy Choices
Limiting Sugary Drinks
Eat Well & Keep Moving
A huge thank you to our amazing Food & Nutrition and Community Education teams, and Rossy E. Duarte, DO, Family Medicine, Mount Sinai Doctors for coordinating and facilitating this wonderful event!
We proudly dedicate our work with children and healthy eating to Valentin Fuster, MD, PhD, President of Mount Sinai Fuster Heart Hospital and Physician-in-Chief of The Mount Sinai Hospital, whose vision continues to inspire us.
