Benefits of eating fruit and vegetables
Research has demonstrated that often times children do not recognise fruit and vegetables and havedifficulty naming them.We know that introducing fruit and vegetables at an early age can have positive effects. Irish children do not eat the recommended daily guidelines for fruit and vegeteables. Overall, childrenhave about 3 servings per day, well below the recommended 5-7-a- day. This includes about oneserving of vegetables and 2 servings of fruit, including a half serving as unsweetened fruit juice. For some children this may be the first time they see the certain fruit and vegetables.
Assess familiarity - Have they seen the fruit & vegetables before? -Have they tasted them? - Would theylike to try them? Differentiation - may like to discuss taste, colour, shape, texture, exploring what they 'feel like' and'sound like'.
