Who we Are
Happy Kids Nutrition Academy is a privately owned international school established in 2021 that offers at-home training classes in health and nutrition for children ages 8-18 years old. Students across Canada, the USA, and many countries around the world have enjoyed the benefits of HKNA’s comprehensive online programs.

Approximately 2 billion children around the globe are micronutrient deficient. While it’s normal for your child to develop picky eating habits, their nutrition is essential. Otherwise, they might become one of the 160 million children under 5 with stunted growth.
Good nutrition and healthy habits begin at a young age. HKNA is aimed to teach your child about nutrition while ensuring your child will grow up with healthy habits into their adult life.
WHY SHOULD KIDS LEARN ABOUT NUTRITION EARLY?

Before we discuss teaching kids about nutrition, let’s talk about why it’s essential.
Healthy eating can help your child reach and maintain healthy body weight. A balanced diet will also help them consume important nutrients, which can help reduce the risk they’ll develop severe health conditions. These conditions can include:
- Iron deficiency
- Dental caries (cavities)
- Heart disease
- Type 2 diabetes
- Cancer
- Osteoporosis
- High blood pressure
According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, children age 2 or older should follow a healthy eating pattern that includes:
- Oils
- A variety of protein foods
- Fat-free and low-fat dairy products
- Whole grains
- A variety of fruits and vegetables
The guidelines also recommend people limit calories from solid fats and added sugars. It’s also important to reduce your sodium intake.
A well-nourished body helps nourish your child’s mind. When your child has the nutrients they need throughout the day, they’re more likely to remain focused. Students who eat a balanced diet have:
- Improved test scores
- Better attendance
- Fewer behavioral issues
Teaching kids about nutrients at a young age can deepen your child’s understanding of:
- Food
- Culture
- History
- Science
- Math
- History
- Reading
In addition to academic skills, nutrition education will also teach your child life skills. For example, they’ll learn how to prepare balanced meals and snacks. They’ll also learn how to listen to their bodies to determine when they’re hungry or full.
Nutrition classes for kids can help your child learn how to provide their bodies with the right amount of food.
Developing these skills early on can ensure they remain healthy into adulthood.
