This guidebook, designed to be used alongside the storybook Down
Mount Kenya on a Tea Tray, has been created to inform readers about
the physical, social and psychological impacts of childhood
obesity. Created for busy parents, teachers and professionals, this
book is founded upon recent research and written in an engaging and
accessible style. Chapters explain the surprisingly complex causes
of childhood obesity and highlight that children often have little
control over the factors that may lead them to become obese. The
physical and psychological consequences of obesity are explored and
strategies suggested, ranging from individual and family support to
changes that need to be made at a societal level to tackle this
significant public health issue. Key features include: * an
accessible guide to childhood obesity * chapter-by-chapter
discussion points for use with Down Mount Kenya on a Tea Tray to
encourage open and honest conversations about childhood obesity and
its effects * strategies to support obese children and their
families to sustain positive lifestyle changes. This is an
essential resource for parents, teachers and other professionals
looking to understand childhood obesity and support children aged
8-12.
