Food guide pyramid for young children

A modification of the original Food Guide Pyramid intended to provide guidance to adults about nutritional choices for children aged 2 to 6. The pyramid illustrates the importance of eating balanced meals with a variety of food choices including daily consumption of grains and  vegetables; moderate intake of fruits, dairy products, and meats; and limited use of fatty foods and sweets. Images placed around the pyramid show children running and playing ball, thus emphasizing the importance of regular physical activity as a component of a healthy lifestyle.
