The Problem of nutritional status that usually afflicts school children is the problem of being short, thin and fat. In addition, school children also often experience problems in choosing inappropriate and safe snacks, eating disorders and infectious diseases (Dyah, 2018). Based on data from the Basic Health Research (RISKESDAS) in 2010 nutritional status with indicators of BMI/U children aged 6-12 years in the category of very thin 4,6%,thin 7,6%, normal 78,6% and obese 9,2%,while the nutritional status (indicator of TB/U) children with stunting prevalence (very short 15,1%,short 20%) and normal 64,5%. As many as 26,4 % of school children have anemia (Ministry Of Health,2010). Purin Muhammadiyah elementary School (SD) is an elementary school that has a nutrition service program and growth and development in schools,this program is held because it is to maintain helath and baalnce nutritional needs. Because some children still haven’t gotten used to having breakfast and according to an initial survey,many children don’t like vegetables.Most of the snacks consumed are snacks with lots of MSG.. So we at STIKES Muhammadiyah Kendal try to be agents of change, one of which is by providing education about the importance of balanced nutrition needs for school children.
