EATING MEALS TOGETHER PROMOTES:
- Quality time for child and adult interaction! Family dinner provides time to share activities from the day or discuss upcoming events.
- A food health connection! Eating together provides an opportunity to talk about and model good nutrition and health behaviors.
- Passing down cultural and family identity! Family dinners provide an opportunity for sharing family stories and creating memories.
Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service in Hidalgo County will be promoting the importance of celebrating family mealtime by posting 30 Days of Family Meals.
