How to give your vegetarian/vegan child the proper nutrition their growing bodies need?



(I was a vegan while pregnant with all my three kids. They are now ages 5, 8, 9, and continue to love their vegan lifestyle; are healthy, smart, and maintain a good weight for their ages).



The very first book I got my hands on was,

"Pregnancy, Children, and the Vegan Diet" by Dr. Michael Klaper. I see that Amazon.com has the book for sale (used). I would recommend any books by Dr. Klaper, I have seen his name on Vegfamily.com too.





Came across this website at a health seminar I attended......

"Food is Elementary," curriculum-based health education program for children
