Nutrient needs of children
• Calories and protein:
• 2 years old: 1000 Calories, 13 g of protein/day
• 6 years old: 1600 Calories, 19 g of protein/day
• Carbohydrates same as adults: 45–65% of total energy intake
• Fat percentage higher:
What to Offer Children
• Plenty of Fruits and Vegetables Daily (per MyPlate)
• Parents need to eat fruits and vegetables if they expect children to eat them.
• The more a child sees a parent eat a particular food, the more likely they are to consume it.
• Plenty of Balance & Variety among other food groups
(based on MyPlate Recommendations)
• When new foods are offered often, children learn to have “new
food” food acceptance.
• Food preference is a learned behavior that occurs after a food is offered of minimum 8-10 times (or more if child has developmental problems). What to Offer Children to Drink
• Beverages should be limited to the following:
• Water
• Milk (should be limited)
• Juice (should be limited)
• Should not offer sugar sweetened beverages:
• Any “fruit drink” that is not 100% fruit juice. Example: Capri sun, Hawaiian
punch, Gatorade, etc.
• Any sodas or soft drinks
• Coffee or caffeinated tea
Electrolyte enhanced beverages, such as Gatorade or Pedialyte, should only be offered when advised by health professional. This would be offered to children who are playing sports for long periods of time or during times of electrolyte loss due to sweating, diarrhea, or vomiting.
Fluid Needs
• Water: can meet water needs by drinking enough to satisfy
thirst in most situations
• Milk: milk intake should be limited and included in child’s total
dairy consumption per MyPlate.
For example: The dairy recommendation per day for a child 3y/o is 2 cups (16oz) per day. So if a child consumes 1-8oz cup of yogurt during the day and 1(2 oz) piece of string cheese, then they will only need a 6 oz glass of milk to meet their dairy requirement. Milk is a source of calories and therefore should be limited to the recommended amounts. If overconsumption occurs it will likely result in unnecessary weight gain and a lack of variety from the other food

Eukaryotic cell Prokaryotic cell Organelle - A structure or part that is enclosed within its own membrane inside a cell and has a particular function. Organelles are found only in eukaryotic cells and are absent from the cells of prokaryotes such as bacteria. The nucleus, the mitochondrion, the chloroplast, the Golgi apparatus, the lysosome, and the endoplasmic reticulum are all examples of organelles. Some organelles, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts, have their own genome (genetic material)…
What will you learn All fluids exert a force that is upward on object on the fluid. The weight of the fluid displaced by the object is equal to the buoyant force on an object. The measurement of mass and volume can be calculated by volume. To change the over all density of an object an object must have a change in shape, volume, mass. Buoyant force and fluid pressure buoyant force is when all fluid pressure exert on a upward force. The upward force that keeps an object…
we can redefine biology as the study of misery, pain, and hate. What fun! Chemistry The knowledge of how to make something explode. And, even more importantly, how to not make it explode. Clearly, a critical aspect of science. Chocolate The solution to every problem. And, btw, Maria’s favorite solution to all her problems. Common Sense An amazingly useful and practical form of intelligence. And one that lots of people lack. :( Earth “Mostly Harmless” from …

Math and science have always been the subjects that kids people seen to dislike, they are dull, boring, repetitive, and massively cringeworthy. If you do not understand what is going on you would most likely to be up, which is what most students seem to do. The problem with these subjects is not that we have a natural feeling to hate them, it is the way curriculums are taught and teachers aren't as energetic about teaching. Which is why there should be a massive reboot to how these subjects are taught…
Evil Data? According to the Scientific Method the nature of Scientific Data is to help us explain natural phenomena, advance diagnosis/treatment in Medical Sciences, and help us to better understand and explain our environment. There have been times that collecting certain data has caused the torture of innocent humans, so would this data be considered evil or is the people collecting the data? Data cannot be evil, the people collecting the data are the ones that are evil. Following World War II…
beliefs. Some religion say that we become soul, some say we got to either hell or heaven, some say we take another birth in other word reincarnation. The book called "Spook", that I researched on also talks about after death and it is about what science has to say about it. The author of this book is Mary Roach. She grew up in a small house in Etna, New Hampshire. She wrote many books like Stiff, Packing for Mars, Bonk and Spook. Out of them the one that I liked is Spook. It's a non fiction. In…
