Obesity: Breaking the Cycle
Obesity has become one of our most significant public health problems. Children and
adolescents are populations at risk for obesity. Childhood obesity is a complex problem,
affecting one in five children in the United States. The CHILDHOOD OBESITY: BREAKING THE
CYCLE educator's tool kit uses behavior change as the overriding framework with positive,
realistic, and achievable goals. It is designed to help educators customize their
presentations to meet the needs of a variety of audiences, including from very young
children to high school students to parents. The tool kit contains three separate packets
of handouts and activities for participants, three educational videos, and an extensive
Educator's Guide that will help you implement the materials for maximum effect. The
CHILDHOOD OBESITY: BREAKING THE CYCLE tool kit utilizes the following frameworks:
environment and family influences, dietary intake analysis, lifestyle assessment, and
activities and exercises that promote behavior change .
