Nutrition Song
This cheerful mealtime song introduces children to common utensils such as plates, spoons, forks and cups, helping them understand their names and functions during eating. As the lyrics highlight healthy food choices and hydration, children build awareness of balanced eating habits and learn to recognize and communicate when they feel hungry or thirsty. Through repetition and relatable routines, the song supports independence and positive mealtime behaviors in a warm and encouraging way.
[Verse 1] Plate
I can pick what to eat,
Veggies, fruits, beans and meat
I use my plate, for my food,
All healthy choices, oh my my!
[Chorus]
Yummy, yummy, in my tummy,
Eating healthy, feeling sunny!
I know when I'm hungry,
And I know when I'm thirsty,
[Verse 2] Spoon
With my spoon, I dip (scoop) so well,
Soup and yogurt, I can have,
With the spoon on my hand,
I move the food to my mouth
[Chorus]
Yummy, yummy, in my tummy,
Eating healthy, feeling sunny!
I know when I'm hungry,
And I know when I'm thirsty,
[Verse 1] Fork
I'm a little eater, hear me say,
I use my fork in such a way.
Stabbing veggies, piece by piece,
Healthy food that’s a feast!
[Chorus]
Yummy, yummy, in my tummy,
Eating healthy, feeling sunny!
I know when I'm hungry,
And I know when I'm thirsty,
[Verse 4] Cup
With my cup, I sip and drink,
Water, juice, it makes me blink.
Staying hydrated all day long,
Keeps me healthy, keeps me strong!
[Chorus]
Yummy, yummy, in my tummy,
Eating healthy, feeling sunny!
I know when I'm hungry,
And I know when I'm thirsty,
[Outro]
When I am full, I finish my meal
Saying thank you, singing our song.
Healthy choices, every day,
Growing big in every way!
