Be True To Your Kids

Helping Kids Eat Healthy and Stay Active!

Our Mission

To bring about culture change one person, one family and one meal at a time. Culture change only happens on the individual level. Starting with our community, St. Tammany Parish, and partnering with local businesses with similar goals, we hope to create a healthy culture where eating healthy and staying active is easy.

Creating culture change starts at an individual level and grows via community support, thus True Body Kids’ primary objective is to support local farms and businesses who share our same goals to change the culture in St. Tammany Parish.

Core Beliefs

Healthy lifestyle fundamentals

Ensure kids are encouraged and motivated
to eat healthy for the rest of their lives.
Program healthy habits early on to avoid
the inner conflict of healthy vs. unhealthy.

Nutrition/ Physical education

Teach what nutrient rich foods are.
Create healthier lunch and snack options.
Explain why our bodies need nutritious food
and physical exercise to be healthy.
Promote life long participation in physical
exercise.
Observe and show how vegetables are
grown in school garden.

Role modeling

Reiterate kids learn by example.
Provide teachers, parents, and caregivers
information and recourses to be good role models in the home.

How?

By partnering with local pediatricians, businesses and community organizations we will help create a culture change in South Louisiana starting with our youngest members of society. By improving the food environment of our toddlers and preschoolers, exposing them to nutrient rich foods early in life, and keeping them active throughout their childhood, they will develop life-long eating and exercise behaviors that will continue into adulthood so they can give back and rebuild the following generation.

"Parents should be empowered to create a healthy home food environment in the same way they approach poison- and accident-proofing the home for a toddler."
- American Academy of Pediatrics

Teach what nutrient rich foods are

Plant, tend and harvest year-round gardens

Teach parents/guardians the importance of role modeling

Create healthier lunch and snack options

Regular Physical Exercise

"Let us first teach little children to breathe, to vibrate, to feel, and to become one with the general harmony and movement of nature. Let us first produce a beautiful human being, a dancing child." - Isadora Duncan
