Abstract (type = abstract)
Purpose of Project:
The purpose of this project is to bring awareness to preschool age obesity and the lack of nutrition, specifically vegetable, education in preschool classrooms.

Methodology:
Design: Educational Pilot Intervention
Setting: Preschool classroom in Berlin, NJ
Sample Size: 6 children; 5 males and 1 female
Intervention: Weekly 1 hour meetings over 6 weeks using the “Veggiecation” Program

Results:
-Increase in vegetable consumption which was determined by three children eating the vegetable sample on Week 1 to five children eating the vegetable sample on Week 6
-Increase in vegetable knowledge which was determined at the end of the program by 6 out of the 6 children reporting that vegetables are healthy for their body & 4 out of the 6 children reporting wanting to eat more vegetables at home

Implications for Practice:
- Interactive educational programs regarding vegetables can have a positive impact on the knowledge and awareness of vegetables in preschool children 
- Pediatric Nurse Practitioners can use this information when giving anticipatory guidance regarding nutrition
- PNP’s can also educate local preschools on the benefits of this type of program
- Interactive vegetable recipes can be given for the family to enjoy during well visits
