Patient Materials SHAPEDOWN
for Children and Adolescents Level 1 (6 to 8 years) includes stories about Ralph Rabbit and Bonnie Bear who are soft, fluffy and round and live in Monarch Meadow. They have various encounters and adventures with Leonard Lamb who teaches them how to accept their genetic body build, talk about their feelings and needs, and become physically active and eat a diet that is healthy but not depriving. Level 2 (9 or 10 years) focuses on Cindy and Matt, two fourth graders in Miss Bacon's class who form their own SHAPEDOWN Club and help each other get in shape, speak up about their feelings and needs and eat healthier. Level 3 (11 or 12 years) highlights the developmental issues of the middle school years and three friends, Jeff, Molly and Lily. Lily contends with her single parent mother and her own emotional overeating. Jeff learns how to speak up and to turn off the television and become active. Molly learns to ask for support and confronts her dad and herself about junk food eating. Level 4 (13 to 18 years) is designed for middle to late adolescents and weaves in interchanges and stories from four teens: Jeff, Molly, Lily and Carol as they learn to take responsibility for both their physical and emotional well being.
