What Are They Teaching Them? w /Kelly Fullerton Don't Salt My Game | With Laura Thomas, PhD
-
- Nutrition
Heyo - welcome to the LAST EVER episode of Don’t Salt My Game 🥺 (dw - I have something else very cool in the works and I’ll share details in this podcast feed when it’s ready at the end of summer).
Our final guest is Kelly Fullerton - a nutritionist and primary school teacher from Melbourne, Australia - who is challenging conventional and dogmatic approaches to how we teach kids about food. In this episode we break down:
Why traditional nutrition education isn’t developmentally appropriate The unintended consequences of teaching things like grams of fat in cheese or number of sugar cubes in drinks We break down why ‘sometimes’ food and ‘everyday’ foods are just a version of ‘good/bad’ We talk about how kids actually learn about food and how teachers can engage kids’ natural curiosity, their culture, and the broader context that kids eat This was a fun episode to go out on - I hope you’ll share it with parents and teachers in your life! And I’m excited to share lots of cool new things with you soon.
