First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a dialogic reading-based nutrition education program could improve preschool children's nutrition knowledge and dietary diversity. Forty-six children participated, and researchers measured their nutrition knowledge using a picture-based quiz and their dietary diversity through a food frequency questionnaire. The approach uses interactive reading to teach healthy eating, offering a potential low-cost tool for early childhood nutrition education.
