The Kids LiveWell initiative was launched by the NRA in 2011, and by 2015, more than 150 chains with 42,000 U.S. locations were taking part in the voluntary program. Participants must offer a single healthy children’s meal and one healthy children’s side dish. The study also found that the NRA’s voluntary program did not spur healthier children’s meals at non-participating restaurants. "They also should take all of the soda, lemonade and other sugary drinks off the kids' menu altogether." Wootan pointed out that restaurant kids' meals are generally consumed by our youngest children, 6 years old and under.
