On April 20, I had a great opportunity to participate in a Health and Wellness Fair at a local school. Even though the weather was not great we had a wonderful turnout for the event. I was able to do a few activities with the children to test their knowledge about serving sizes and sugar in soft drinks and juices. As it turns out we do have some smart children when it comes to serving sizes. Most of them picked the right ball, which was the tennis ball to illustrate an appropriate serving size. On the other hand, when it came to sugar both parents and children had no idea there are 12-20 teaspoons of sugar in soft drinks!
