Description: This coloring book is designed for children ages 4-8 to help teach them about the importance of milk for building strong teeth and a healthy body. Milk and other dairy products give kids the calcium they need for growth and development.* Kids ages 4-8 need 800 milligrams of calcium each day. At the end of this coloring book you will find a list of foods high in calcium that can be an excellent part of a healthy diet.

In addition to calcium, it is important for kids to brush their teeth with fluoride toothpaste at least twice a day to help protect their teeth from cavities
