Healthy Kids Day
The Fairfield YMCA Healthy Kids Day is this Saturday, April 12 from 9:00am-1:00pm. Join the fun at this national event sponsored by the YMCA of USA and Disney Channel. Take part in fun activities for the whole family including a youth fitness challenge, open swim, karate demo, face painting, arts and crafts, an obstacle course, water safety tips, a special visit from the Tooth Fairy, and free Child Identification kits. Fairfield YMCA Health and Wellness Expert Samantha Heller will also be appearing at Healthy Kids Day, offering healthy snack and nutrition tips for families.
This year YMCA of USA and Eli Lilly and Company have collaborated to create a Healthy Family Home Starter Kit. The kit focuses on physical activity, healthy meals and family time, and gives families a variety of options so they can choose a path to health that makes sense to them. An additional resource, the Healthy Family Home Web site will also launch April 12 and will provide families nationwide with access to information contained in the Starter Kit, healthy recipes, network of support and fun activities and suggestions to help keep the momentum going.
Stop by the Fairfield YMCA on Healthy Kids Day and let the Y show you how to create a healthier family home by adding more play, health and family time back into your day!
