Abstract: The 30 hour course is designed to be used in vocational or technical school child care curricula or may be adapted for use as a short course for common child care providers, workshops or short presentations. Divided into five units the course provides: information on basic principles of normal nutrition for preschoolers; factors influencing the preschooler's eating behavior and the role of the child care center in the formation of food habits; background information to be used as a basis for nutrition education programs and ideas for staff development of the parent involvement component. Each unit contains a course outline (content, background materials), suggested strategies (step-by-step description of activities), references and resources needed (handouts for duplication and transparencies included), additional hints to the instructor for effective teaching and class/group management.
