Wasting in Children and Participation in the Pre-school Education in the Urban / Rural Kenyan set up
This study sought to determine the relationship between wasting and children’s participation in pre-school education. The sample size for this study was 390 children. The findings indicate that statistically there is a significant relationship between nutritional status in terms of wasting and participation in pre-school (p= 0.000< 0.05). This means that more of the children who were wasted did not attend pre-school. The study recommends that children be fed with adequate food that is balanced and served in the right propotions.
