Group 25 from Yarsi University conducted a Community Service Learning (KKN) program on Wednesday, December 13th, 2023 at BKB PAUD Ceria Kindergarten in Pademangan Timur, North Jakarta. Titled “Pre-Kindergarten Introducing Healthy and Nutritious Food”, the program aimed to educate young children about nutritious foods and provide better understanding to parents regarding healthy eating for their children. Based on initial analysis, nutritional issues and healthy dietary patterns were identified as significant challenges in the area.
The activities implemented two main programs at the kindergarten: a creative coloring session of nutritious foods designed to introduce healthy food concepts to children, and a nutritional education and Q&A session for parents to enhance their knowledge on the importance of nutrition. Through these activities, it is hoped that children can learn more about healthy foods in an enjoyable way, while parents gain useful insights on establishing healthy eating habits. This program is expected to positively impact the community’s dietary patterns in Pademangan Timur and contribute to achieving SDG 3 on health and well-being.
