READY BODY, READY MINDS HEALTHY BOOK PACK
Food, movement and body awareness are big topics for young children — and they can be sensitive ones.
Children come with different energy levels, food needs, allergies, sensitivities, sensory preferences, movement needs and emotional states. This four-book pack supports educators to open those conversations in a positive, inclusive and engaging way.
The Ready Bodies, Ready Minds Pack helps children explore food, movement, healthy habits and body signals through curiosity rather than pressure. Instead of giving one-size-fits-all rules, these books invite children to notice what is happening inside their own bodies and begin building language for energy, focus, hunger, fullness, movement, comfort and choice.
This pack includes:
What Happens When I… EAT?
A visual inquiry book exploring digestion, nutrients, hunger, fullness, energy and body signals without good/bad food language.
What Happens When I… MOVE?
A dynamic inquiry book exploring how movement affects muscles, breath, blood, nerves, brain, focus, energy and emotions. Includes a follow-along movement activity children can try as they read.
Kids Get Active
A positive movement book showing children that being active can be fun, varied and accessible.
Rainbow Yum
A colourful food exploration book encouraging curiosity, variety and positive conversations around food.
Together, these books support learning around food curiosity, movement confidence, body awareness, emotional regulation, healthy habits and ready-to-learn bodies.
Perfect for early childhood and junior primary classrooms exploring health, wellbeing, food, movement, interoception, sensory awareness, self-regulation and physical literacy.
