4-H Cooking Club

Cultivating culinary kids is a great way to help them build healthy habits early on. When children know how to make healthy food choices and can prepare well-balanced meals on their own, they'll be far less reliant on unhealthy, quick and easy options like fast food and pre-packaged foods.

Objectives

  • Increased knowledge of healthy eating habits.
  • Ability to identify foods to eat more of and understand the nutrients that help us grow and stay healthy.
  • Application of new knowledge of healthy food choice and food group understanding to create a healthy meal or snack.
  • Engagement in hands-on opportunities to explore food.
  • Increased awareness of the benefits of a balanced diet.
  • Increased knowledge of Georgia’s agriculture and where food comes from.
  • Increased understanding of the importance of engaging in daily physical activity and adopting a healthy diet.
  • Prepare students for competition in project achievement
