Have the children take pictures of the foods that they eat at home. Use the Nutrition acitvity to explore caloric intake and the degree to which they are eating a balanced meal.
Also ('''not yet implemented''') have the children find a food item not in the database and add it using the '''gear icon'''. They will need make a picture of the food (using Paint or Record) and look up the nutritional content of their food. (https://www.choosemyplate.gov/SuperTracker/foodapedia.aspx is a good resource.)
Nutrition is a good introduction to some of the concepts explored further in [[Activities/TurtleArt#Nutrition]].
