Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of a proposed training program on enhancing awareness of healthy food choices among kindergarten children. The program focused on educating children about diverse food groups, selecting balanced meals, and adopting healthy snacking habits. Utilizing an experimental methodology, the study was conducted on a sample of 50 children aged 5–6 years (second-level kindergarten) at Al Hussein Ibn Ali School in Sibrbay, Tanta, Gharbia Governorate, Egypt. The sample was divided into an experimental group (n = 25) and a control group (n = 25). A pre-test scale measuring children's awareness of healthy food concepts was administered to both groups. The training program was subsequently implemented exclusively for the experimental group. A post-test scale was then administered to both groups to assess changes in awareness. The findings revealed a statistically significant difference (p < .05) in the mean scores of the experimental group compared to the control group, indicating the program's effectiveness in enhancing children's understanding of healthy nutrition.
