Healthy Weight for Kids - Children grow and develop at different ages and stages. Some grow out before they grow up - and visa versa. Staying active and eating right is important at any age or shape. To promote healthy growth, a child needs to eat well, keep active and get enough sleep. Try to establish these healthy habits when your children are young.

Avoid Calorie-Controlled Diets

Calorie-controlled diets are not appropriate for children because they may interfere with their growth and development. Your child needs calories and plenty of vitamins and minerals to grow up healthy. Have your child's weight and height measured regularly, so you can see how they are growing over time. If you're concerned, seek the advice of a physician or registered dietitian.
