If you are looking for some great tips on
teaching kids healthy habits, The Healthy Kids Hub is a website that offers hundreds of resources to support the
implementation of three guiding principles for healthier out-of-school-time
programs: Drink Right, Move More, and Snack Smart.
Girl
Scouts has an organizational commitment to healthy living, aiming to make
positive contributions to kids’ lives, so they are equipped with the skills and
confidence to become healthy and happy adults. Out-of-school-time organizations like ours play a key role
in promoting health and wellness programs that can impact not only the
children, but the leaders and families as well.
So, what can you do? Visit
www.HealthyKidsHub.org and
browse
through the resources on your own, or complete a brief survey to
get resources tailored to your program’s specific needs. You can also join other leaders from around
the country in taking the pledge to
adopt the three principles. Those who
take the pledge by May 8, 2013 will be entered into a random drawing to win one
of 100 $50 gift cards. Learn more at www.HealthyKidsHub.org.
