Daily Fit Tip: Get your "Kids in the Kitchen"

"Kids in the Kitchen" is a program geared towards teaching children to make healthy lifestyle choices and to hopefully help stall or even reverse the current obesity epidemic. Created and supported by The Association of Junior Leagues International Inc., last year more than 255 local Leagues around country participated. Depending on where you live and the approach each individual League chooses the program may vary, but the principles behind it remains the same: teach healthy kitchen skills to kids. In my area, for example, grade school kids took part in a recipe contest and the winners spent the day baking and eating healthy goodies with a local celebrity chef. So keep your eyes and ears open for word of a "Kids in the Kitchen" event in your area, or check out their website to find out if something is happening near you.
