   • Make the healthy choice the easy choice by putting fresh fruits and vegetables out on your kitchen counter or at the front of your fridge, washed and ready to eat.
   • Do the opposite with sweets, candy, cookies, chips and sugary drinks (including soda, juice, and sports drinks). Keep those out of sight, or better yet, out of the house.
   • Encourage fun activities that help children get exercise. Sports are great, but so is bike riding, hiking, backyard games, skating or anything else that gets kids moving (and parents, too!).
   • Schedule regular times for meals and snacks. This cuts down on grab-and-go eating and will help to bring your family together around the table more often.
