ENERGY ZONE KIDS FITNESS CHALLENGE
Research shows children copy the
behavior of adults in their life. If
parents are physically active, the children will be active too. Exercise burns calories, which assist in
maintaining ideal weight. Fit
adults and children exercise 60 minutes per day.
KEEP MOVING TO STAY
IN SHAPE TIPS
-
Plan daily family walks.
- Limit television or computer time to 1 to 2 hours per day.
- Make exercise fun.
- Encourage play outside with other children.
- Assign chores that involve activity such as cleaning or walking the dog.
- Help your children find physical activities they enjoy.
Remember, making a healthy change
takes time and don’t expect perfection.

Smart Snack Choices = A
Healthier You!
Did you
know one in five school-age children eat up to six snacks a day? Easy access to
sugary snacks can lead to weight gain. Many common snacks are often high in
calories and low in nutritional value, according to the American Academy of
Pediatrics. Providing the right types of snacks at the right time will help
manage hunger and boost energy. Controlling portion sizes and limiting snacking
is also key to maintaining a healthy weight.
