Summary
This study tests an 8-week online program called EatGrow, where parents and their preschool-aged children (ages 3-5) learn about nutrition, cook together, and taste new foods. The goal is to see if it helps kids eat more fruits and vegetables and become more willing to try new foods, while also improving parents' nutrition knowledge. The study involves 72 families in Denton County, Texas, and compares the program to a group that gets access later.
