Preschoolers

By Mayo Clinic staff

Making conscious choices about preschool children's health today can lead to good habits and good behavior throughout childhood. After all, teaching your preschooler to make healthy food choices now sets the stage for a lifelong healthy diet. Putting childhood bedtime problems to rest can ensure good sleep for both you and your preschooler for years to come. And understanding typical preschool developmental milestones can help you monitor your preschooler's growth and development.
