Write their name, tell us who they are, draw a picture of them, and share what makes them special to you. Then give your Healthy Hero a star by choosing one word that describes them.

Make It With Us!

It is time to get creative! Grab your supplies and make today’s craft alongside our hosts.

Build a Balanced Plate Wheel

Before We Start…

“Grab these items from around your house and create with us!”

You will need:

· A paper plate (or plate outline)

· Coloured paper or magazine cut-outs of food

· Glue

· Scissors (with an adult’s help)

· Markers or crayons

Let’s Make It!

1. Divide the plate into four sections.

2. Cut out or draw fruits, vegetables, grains, and proteins.

3. Glue each food picture into its matching section.

4. Decorate the plate border like a Healthy Hero shield.

5. Hold up your finished balanced plate and admire your work!

Throughout the activity, the hosts encourage healthy choices and remind children that every balanced plate looks different — and that is okay.
