Girls as young as five are worried about the way they look and their size, and a third of boys aged 8-12 are dieting to lose weight. This 16-session curriculum aims to provide children with the information and understanding they need in order to maintain and celebrate a healthy and positive body image. Focusing on building individual strengths and self-esteem, the sessions develop children's sense of identity and the ability to recognise and celebrate each other's strengths and talents. The influence of the media, peer pressure and healthy lifestyles are also covered. This ready-to-use curriculum includes a training session for staff, information about how to deliver the programme, guidelines on creating a whole-school approach, a parent workshop and creative activities with photocopiable worksheets. Focusing on an increasingly important issue, this is an ideal programme for teachers, youth workers and others working with children aged 7-11. 606 $aBody image in children 606 $aHealth education (Elementary) 606 $aIdentity (Psychology) in children 615 0$aBody image in children 615 0$aHealth education (Elementary) 615 0$aIdentity (Psychology) in children 676 $a372.370440941 700 $aMacConville$b Ruth$01130704 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910157770703321 996 $aPositive body image for kids$92895375 997 $aUNINA
