The Albert Einstein Healthcare Network provides nutrition materials and guides to all teachers to provide the SNAP-ED program. This program focuses on positively exposing children to a wide variety of nutritious foods in a fun, experimental way. Einstein Nutrition provides with the food for tasting and a coloring book associated with those foods. All sites will have a SNAP-ED representative to facilitate the activity with the classroom.
During the activity, SNAP-Ed representative will provide the students with the food sample to try. Each student gets to determine if they like it or not, and then they all describe the food in the coloring books. There is typically a song or rhyme that accompanies the food and activity, and each child is encouraged to try every food option.
