Description: Did you know just one or two everyday swaps can really make a difference to how much sugar your child is having, while still keeping them happy? Children in England are eating an extra 2,800 sugar cubes a year, which is more than double the recommended guidelines. That's 8 cubes too many each day! Half of the sugar in our children's diets comes from sugary drinks, sweets, biscuits, cakes, puddings, sugary breakfast cereals and higher-sugar yoghurts and puddings. But it's easy to cut back by swapping from higher- to lower-sugar products. Find out more here: nhs.uk/change4life/food-facts/sugar/sugar-swaps-for-kids
