Kids in the Kitchen teaches healthy choices!

The sixth annual Kids in the Kitchen event will be held on May 3 at Cambrian Heights School, 640 Northmount Drive N.W. Approximately 165 students in grades four, five and six will participate as Chef Will Kwong, (Executive Chef, Premium Seating, Calgary Stampede) will dazzle the students with his culinary skills and healthy recipes, while two fitness instructors, Emily Roback and Natalie Wynn-Dempsey, will get everyone moving.

There will be food preparation, creative dance and exercise, a food group game and a "Mission Nutrition" food lab, which features Eating Well with Canada's Food Guide, Rate Your Breakfast Cereal, Quench Your Thirst and Fast Foods.

Since the creation of Kids in the Kitchen in 2006, the Junior League of Calgary (JLC) has dedicated itself to promoting healthy lifestyles and helping kids make nutritious eating choices.
