KIDS CURRICULUM

Supporting Kids And Parents With Innovative Education In Nutritional Psychology

What if your children developed the skills to navigate the Western dietary landscape (WDL) from a young age? What if you could help them build an internal awareness of how to desire foods that support their mental health?

It’s not enough anymore to say “eat your broccoli because it’s good for you.” Children’s exposure to the Western Diet lifestyle becomes second nature if they are not taught to to counter the perceptual, behavioral, psychological and psychosocial cues arising within the WDL. CNP is working to arm kids with the skills needed to support conscious choices that benefit their mood, behavior, and mental health.

The CNP Animated Curriculum for children (and their parents), NP Curriculum for pediatricians, mental health professionals and counselors, and the Culinary Skills courses are all designed to equip kids with these skills. Check back for updates on courses that will be available starting in 2024.
