Due to their age, young children do not understand the importance of proper nutrition. As the daughter of an orthopedic surgeon, I was told often to drink milk, eat cheese and eat yogurt. Why? Because all of these dairy products have calcium! Calcium is important for bones. Calcium keeps bones strong and healthy. Without calcium, our bones would be incredibly weak and would be damaged with every single step a person took. This activity shows children why calcium is so important to our bones. This will help parents get their children to consume dairy products that contain calcium and will help their bones!
