MyPyramid for Kids educational material brings the messages of MyPyramid to elementary school children. Teachers can easily teach MyPyramid for Kids by using the classroom materials, including lesson plans, an interactive game, and a MyPyramid for Kids Poster. The fun, colorful MyPyramid for Kids graphic will attract children's attention and encourage them to learn more about MyPyramid for Kids. The nutrition and physical activity messages included throughout the materials are designed to help children 6 to 11 years old make healthy eating and physical activity choices.

MyPyramid materials available from Team Nutrition for middle and high school students consist of the MyPyramid poster and mini-poster and the handout, Anatomy of MyPyramid. Team Nutrition is developing additional MyPyramid educational material for middle and high school students which will be posted to this site as soon as it is completed.
