Family. It's a major part of every child's life—and often the most important factor in helping a child make healthy changes. Research shows children are often more willing to eat healthy foods and be active if they see their parents and other family members doing these things first. That's why it's important to get every member of your family involved in healthy eating and physical activity.

When the whole family participates...
| • Your child will not feel singled out or punished for being overweight. |  |
| • Your child will learn from example. | |
| • Healthy eating and physical activity will be more fun. | |
| • Everyone will benefit from healthier eating and increased activity. | |
| • It will help to keep everyone motivated and on track. |
