Sing to the tune of 'Twinkle Twinkle, LIttle Star"

1. A song of Nutrients
ABCDE and K are vitamins we need each day.
Vegetables and fruits have these,
To help us grow and Bight disease.
Five good servings every day, so we grow in a healthy
way.

2. Minerals like iron and zinc
make our blood strong‐help us think!
Cereals and milk and meat,
Have minerals we eat,
So our bodies can digest
and keep our insides at their best.

3. We use energy to play,
to think, to sleep, to live each day.
Breads and grains and fruit and such,
For starch and sugars needed much.
Carbohydrates that will give
the energy we need to live.

4. Proteins in the hair on you,
brains, teeth, and muscles, too.
WE get protein when we eat,
Peanut butter, beans, and meat.
Protein helps us grow up strong
and Bix the hurts when things go wrong.

5. Fat is found in treats and meat
and in the fried foods that we eat.
It gives warmth and energy.
We need a little bit you see.
Do not eat too much of that.
Bodies keep the extra fat.

6. We need lots of water, too,
for all the things our bodies do.
Drink up water and eat right.
Get the sleep you need at night.
Exercise and smile wide,
cause you feel so good inside!
