Welcome
to our Healthy Kids Challenge downloadable pages! We’re
providing AWE-some activities and ideas
in an A-ppealing and fun W-elcome
and inviting E-asy and simple format.
These pages are to be used in the classroom, for after-school
programs, or anywhere kids are found. The examples require
few materials and are easy to follow.
We
will provide a new downloadable activity
each month based on the following 6
simple healthy habit building messages:
- Fruits
& Veggies – Every Day the Tasty Way!
Eat at least 5 servings (and up to 9) of
fruits and veggies each day. Help kids learn “More
Matters”!
-
Snack Attack! – Recognize added
sugar and fat in foods as a step in making choices
for healthy balance. Choose foods with added sugar
and fat less often or in smaller amounts.
-
Active Play EVERY Day! – Increase
physical movement through the day in every way. Choose
things you LIKE to do for at least 60 minutes of active
time most days.
-
Breakfast GO POWER! – Eat breakfast
to THINK-LEARN-GROW-PLAY
-
Discover Smart Servings! Recognize
how sometimes it is not WHAT but HOW MUCH. Choose
larger servings of foods lower in added fat and sugar.
-
Drink Think! Make a healthy SPLASH
with a Drink Think. Choose water or low fat milk more
often.
