English translation:

Sometimes children don't get the good food they need to be healthy and strong. What is called "vitamin C" is in limes and oranges, and you can make juice from these for children to drink. Meat, eggs, milk, fish and other good foods can help children grow. Don't give them damper and tea, as these are not good foods and won't help them grow. They will make children unhealhy and reduce their strength and energy.
