武庫川女子大学 栄養科学研究所と西宮市保健所は、11月25日、12月9日の両日、西宮北口キャンパスで「親子料理・食育教室」(協力：広田地区社会福祉協議会)を開催しました。
「親子料理・食育教室」は、児童に体験型の食育講座を通じて食物や食事に興味を持ってもらい、その保護者に身体計測やバランスの良い食事をテーマにした講座を通じて、自身の健康を意識してもらうことを目的に行っています。
今回は、10月に子どもたちが収穫したさつまいもを使って、保護者とともにコロッケを調理し、試食しました。その後、子どもたちは本学の学生による食育教室に参加。さつまいもの成長過程やさつまいもの料理、バランスのよい食事に至るまでをクイズ形式で楽しみながら学びました。
保護者の方々は、体脂肪率や骨格筋量、骨密度などの身体計測後、保健所による特定健診の現状やバランスのよい食事に関する講座を受講。身体と健康について学びを深めました。参加者は「体の状態を知ることができてよかった」、「検診に行こうと思いました」などと話していました。
The University's Research Institute for Nutrition Sciences and the Nishinomiya City Public Health Center held a "Cooking and Nutrition Education Class for Parents and Children."
The Institute of Nutritional Sciences of Mukogawa Women's University and Nishinomiya City Public Health Center held the "Cooking and Nutrition Education Class for Parents and Children" (in cooperation with the Hirota Community Social Welfare Council) on November the 25th and December the 9th at Nishinomiya-Kitaguchi Campus.
The "Cooking and Nutrition Education Classroom for Parents and Children" is designed to encourage children to become interested in food and diet through hands-on nutrition education classes, and for their parents to become aware of their own health through physical measurements and lectures on well-balanced meals.
This time, the children and their parents cooked and tasted croquettes using sweet potatoes harvested by the children in October. Afterwards, the children participated in a nutrition education class given by students of the university. The children enjoyed learning about the growth process of sweet potatoes, cooking with sweet potatoes, and eating a well-balanced diet through a quiz format.
Parents took physical measurements such as body fat percentage, skeletal muscle mass, and bone density, and then attended a lecture by the public health center on the current status of specific health checkups and a well-balanced diet. They learned more about their bodies and health. Participants said, "It was good to know the condition of my body," and "It made me think about going for a checkup."
