Thank you for visiting Eeva & Remy’s Tiny Kitchen. My name is Deb Carnahan, and I am a Health Coach, Mikaa Health LLC, and recently finished a MS in Nutrition Education. I am very interested in helping young individuals eat a healthy and balanced diet and reduce sugar consumption to better their health. I created this site for kids from 9-11 years old to encourage them to learn about sugar and how it affects their bodies. I hope you enjoy learning! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381594134-1YZJKNF5S7E6EGMUKSX6/arms+up.png About - More information For a little more background on the purpose of this website, the issue of obesity is a global problem, not only for adults but for children as well. According to the World Health Organization, in 2012, close to 44 million (6.7%) of children worldwide five years and under were considered overweight or obese (World Health Organization, 2018). One problem contributing to the issue of childhood obesity is the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs). SSBs are a source of additional caloric intake, causing a risk of obesity and the development of chronic diseases (Paglia et al., 2019). So, not only does sugar affect dental health, which we are very much aware of, but sugar also impacts overall health (DeChristopher & Tucker, 2020; Fidler Mis et al., 2017; Gan et al., 2021; Wang, 2018). During the pivotal ages of 9 – 11 years old, a child starts to make decisions about their health. At this phase in their development, nutrition education targeted at sugar consumption, sugar-sweetened beverages, and other foods with added sugar could have some impact as the child begins to take agency over decisions about their health (Nation’s Voice For Children | American SPCC, 2018). This program will be a jumpstart to educate and provide nutritional information to children about the effects of sugar-sweetened beverages and added sugar on their health and encourage them to limit consumption to reduce the risk of obesity and chronic disease which can begin in childhood. More content, videos, games, and quizzes will be added so kids can continue to challenge their knowledge about sugar and nutrition. https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/blog daily 0.75 2023-08-18 https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/blog/whats-the-story-on-sugar-bhz9x monthly 0.5 2021-09-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381597129-024R7A9KL38JPA962GX2/analia-baggiano-CdnyQH3_Lb4-unsplash-1536x1536.jpeg Blog - What’s the story on sugar? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381597126-HQCCX4U956KBCB4H6ETS/sketch+food+horizontal+2.jpg Blog - What’s the story on sugar? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381597132-V19R999E3Y8E8A0AAHWS/AdobeStock_89347182-2048x803.jpeg Blog - What’s the story on sugar? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/contact daily 0.75 2023-08-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381600665-2KQFJ1JTXT9IXMH4NKDW/AdobeStock_238547533.jpeg Contact - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/home daily 1.0 2023-08-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381590185-JX4TBZ831BKAWK5GKLTS/kids3.png Home - Learn About Sugar Follow the steps on the Roadmap below, starting with the video, to develop a better understanding of sugar consumption. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381590192-PIVJBPMXXWAL03O50IYK/project-2021-09-17_22-09_PM+%283%29.jpg Home - head to the resources page to Locate the ROADMAP Resources https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/home-old daily 0.75 2023-08-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce8245cb387ed0001208bab/1587743880176-HQ8MU6EE1IXAI73EO00F/2015-08-11_home-goods-9-1143-detail-FINAL.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce8245cb387ed0001208bab/1587745569916-7N39140WSH63ZM73PE1U/2015-08-12_home-goods-0052-v2-FINAL.jpg Home - Start Fresh Sets and Pairs https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce8245cb387ed0001208bab/1587745529628-HYIIKP1W8WR59TTF1BQZ/product-country-feast-set-15deg-4x3.jpg Home - Explore The Core Collection https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/parent-resources daily 0.75 2023-08-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381585211-K7M4AUJ17TOJKADXUGS0/ERTK_QuickTipsforParents+%281%29.jpg Parent Resources https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/recipes daily 0.75 2023-08-18 https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/recipes/blog-post-title-one-p56jt-5wkjc monthly 0.5 2021-09-16 https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/resources daily 0.75 2023-08-18 https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/resources/project-six-zfjf6-h82pl monthly 0.5 2021-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381579467-KNF7BA3KV5I4CEP3LW54/Quiz.jpg Resources - Quiz https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/resources/project-two-h6xe6-rs3b5 monthly 0.5 2021-09-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381579557-EM40HIKV6CUR1OO986AC/project-2021-09-15_19-09_PM.jpg Resources - Common Foods & Drinks with Sugar https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/resources/project-three-5gcgg-cpw3r monthly 0.5 2021-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381579375-ANUF9C9V49L0HT82LE65/ERTK_WordSearch.jpg Resources - Word Search https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/resources/project-four-hzngd-4gepn monthly 0.5 2021-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381579406-LPL48ZLHDB7RQ53O178Y/project-2021-09-16_16-09_PM.jpg Resources - Nutrition Facts Labels https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/resources/project-five-cttg6-zw8gj monthly 0.5 2021-09-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381579440-N9U463XN083T4KPM9258/ERHealthySnackIdeas.jpg Resources - Healthy Snack Ideas Try a couple new healthy snacks each week https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/resources/project-one-wn2ss-98maf monthly 0.5 2021-09-16 https://www.mikaastinykitchen.com/videos-games daily 0.75 2023-08-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64dfb1834fc2bd2a0774c877/1692381572144-L8DTLXARV6Q8A1320IBJ/corgi+1.png Videos & Games - Coming soon
