Here’s a fun-filled, hands-on resource kit to help you and your children find ways to get moving and make healthy food choices along with Sesame Street friends. You’ll find tons of activities, games, poems and songs, dances, and ways to include learning about healthy choices into your everyday routines.
It’s easy to use. This kit is designed to be used throughout the day and to easily fit into your daily routine. The activities don’t require a lot of time or preparation, and they’re versatile. You’ll find activities for large and small groups, indoor and outdoor learning, and active and quiet play. Choose the activities that work best for your group.
It’s fun for everyone – even you! All of the activities are designed to include all children – and you! When children see that you are excited about staying healthy and learning along with them, they are more likely to be engaged. The silly and joyful Sesame Street characters will add to the fun you’ll have together.
Section 1, Get Moving! focuses on physical activity and how it builds strong, healthy bodies.
Section 2, Food and Drink to Grow On, highlights ways we can make healthy food choices.
Section 3, Every Day Is a Healthy Day builds upon the first two sections to help children remember what they’ve learned – and celebrate their new knowledge.
As you already know, children learn best when there is a strong partnership between home and school, so the Healthy Habits for Life kit also helps you involve families.
