The program offers fun "Weight-Wise Activity" handouts (health-themed crossword puzzles, word searches, word scrambles and other games), Caregiver Information Sheets, "How to Talk to Your Weight-Challenged Child" pamphlets, and other such information resources. As an added benefit, industry professionals who are members of this Specialist Partner Program – and their clients - receive a full 15% discount on all items offered in Healthy Kids' Catalog's online storefront at www. HealthyKidsCatalog. com.
