National Take Your Parents to Lunch Day is a grassroots effort to bring families together with schools to share a lunchtime meal. For parents across the country, this is a day to visit their children's schools, have lunch with them in the cafeteria, learn more about what goes into serving a healthy lunch, and talk to kids about how eating well can help them stay healthy and strong. For schools, the event allows them to showcase their nutritious meals and give parents more information about lunchtime, from what goes into serving healthy meals to what the daily lunch experience is like to what changes have been made to the menu.

Participants can also enter to win a $1,000 grant from KIWI magazine and the Whole Kids Foundation to benefit their school's lunch program. Official Rules and an entry form are available at myhealthyschool.com/lunchday.

Whether a school has long been focusing on health or is just starting to think about offering more nutritious fare, National Take Your Parents to Lunch Day is an enjoyable and informative event every district can benefit from.
