Isn't gamins a better translation for kids than enfants writing challenge A2

A1 Writing Challenge: the sentence 'parce que ce n'est bon pour la/ma santé. Why is it "ce n'est bon" instead of ce n'est pas bon? Thank you.

Bonjour Terri et merci !

This was indeed a typo, which has now been corrected thanks to you :)

Could you please explain why there wasn't a 'pas' in the sentence "parce que ce n'est bon pour la/ma santé" in the A1 writing test?

Bonjour Chris et merci !
