There are many healthy diet habits for kids that will help them to develop a healthy relationship with food. We live in a world full of overweight and obese(肥胖的) children, many of whom will go on to become obese adults. We care for our children’s health, and should also care about our children’s eating habits. Here are a few eating habits that we can model and teach our kids.
Respect(尊重) your kids: We are all different! We should not force our kids to eat foods they dislike, because there are so many healthy foods.
Eating without distraction: Mindless eating leads to overeating. We can teach our kids to eat at the table, not in front of the television, and not with a big bag of potato chips or cookies!
The half plate rule: This rule states that half of your plate should be full of fruits, salads and vegetables. Let them choose the salads, and fun vegetables that they would love to try!
The 20-minute rule: This rule says it takes 20 minutes to know that your stomach is full, so we need to eat slowly. Dinner should be a family time of sharing, not just a rush to the next television marathon(马拉松).
Of course there are many other healthy eating habits for our kids. But no matter what the rules are, moms are the gatekeeper of the family food, and our kids will model our eating habits! Let’s make sure we are teaching our kids great food habits!

【推荐2】①It’s easy to think “that will never happen to me,” but natural disasters (灾难) are becoming both more common and serious. Millions of families face floods, tornados and other natural disasters every year. In Australia, for example, its wildfires from 2021 to 2023 were caused by the high temperature and a drought (干早), taking away the lives of hundreds of people and billions of animals.
②While you can’t stop disasters from happening, you can stay safe during one if you know what to do.Flood
③Floods can happen very suddenly. Flood water can be deeper than it looks. It can carry you away, so stay away! Glass, snakes, and dirty things can be in flood water. They can make you sick, so don’t drink it even if you are thirsty.Tornado
④A tornado happens during some storms. If there’s a tornado warning, go someplace, such as a small and sturdy (结实的) bathroom, which is safe from the wind and flying things. Remember to keep away from windows or anything heavy that might fall on you. Get down low and cover your head with your arms.
Earthquake
⑤You can stay safe during an earthquake by moving away from things that might fall. Get down under something that’s strong if you can’t rush out of the building right away.

【推荐3】You use it every day, and there’s one in nearly every home and on every street comer-it’s the toilet. Did you know the average person spends three whole years of his or her life on the toilets? For something so important, we give it very little thought. Well, November 19 is World Toilet Day-a day to bring attention to the toilet.
World Toilet Day reminds us of how lucky we are to have toilets. Many people still don’t have clean toilets, and this causes a number of health problems.
Toilets take many different forms around the world. In the US, you won’t see any squatting (蹲式的) toilets. Most people in the Western world have toilets and running water in their homes.
But, in some places, toilets are outdoors in “outhouses”. Everyone in the neighborhood shares the same outhouse, and going to the toilet becomes a social event. Depending on where you are, public toilets can be very private, with machines playing the sound of running water to mask your noises. Or, public toilets can have no privacy at all-just one big room. Now some modern toilets have electronic keypads, heaters and even play music!
When you use the toilet, you should keep some manners in mind: Flush (冲) the toilet after you have finished. Wash your hands before you leave the restroom. Don’t stand on the toilet when you are using it. If you use public toilets, there may be a line. Don’t cut in line-this is very rude.
