Color Me Healthy is a program developed to reach children ages four and five with fun, interactive learning opportunities on physical activity and healthy eating. It is designed to stimulate all the senses of young children: touch, smell, sight, sound, and, of course, taste. Using color, music, and exploration of the senses, Color Me Healthy teaches children that healthy food and physical activity are fun.
This Storytime program is a free. All Color Me Healthy materials are funded by USDA’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program – SNAP through the AZ Health Zone. For additional information about classes contact Geovani Donaldson at 928-554-8993 or gdonaldson1@arizona.edu.
