CAA Health's Nutrition Education Specialist, Mercy Masvikeni, joined the kiddos at Sewall Preschool for a fun, hands-on nutrition education class! The little ones learned all about energy foods, or “Go” foods, and had a blast creating their own Healthy Kids Plates using whole-wheat crackers, bananas, carrots, cheese, raisins, and hummus. Their enthusiasm and creativity truly made the class special.
