Since the 2-4 year old age group is not developmentally able
to comprehend nutrition messages intended for adults, such
as those found in the 2005 U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans
(DGAs), the focus of the activity sheets is to perform activities
appropriate for this age based on information from the Department
of Education. These activity sheets include basic preschool
skills such as counting, identifying shapes, identifying letters
in the alphabet, matching alike items (food), and identifying
objects (with emphasis on fruits and vegetables).
The materials are available in PDF format in both English
and Spanish. They are appropriate for printing in color or
black and white by WIC State agencies.
If a format other than PDF is needed, email wicworks@nal.usda.gov.
