USDA's MyPlate

(continued)

For Parents

The American Academy of Family Physicians advises using MyPlate for your children, too. Encourage kids to eat balanced portions of vegetables, fruits, proteins, grains, and dairy -- not necessarily at every meal, but every day. Remember that children mimic parents' behavior, so watching you eat well will encourages them to eat healthy meals, too.

For more information on portion sizes for individual foods, recommended daily requirements for each age group, and other nutritional data, go to www.choosemyplate.gov.
