Week #3
|
 1.) No time to workout? No worries. Spread out your workout throughout the day. 3 Ten minute “mini-workouts” can be just as effective! |
 2.) Shake up dinnertime! Have a picnic, serve breakfast for dinner, or plan a ‘theme’ night? Include the kids in the planning – it’s fun for the whole family. |
 3.) Grow with your kids. Plant a garden or find a community garden near you. Together you can develop a connection to the land and an appreciation for where your food comes from. |
 4.) Go green and make a difference. Do your part to protect the earth while supporting your local farmers – buy locally grown produce. Your family will love the flavor. |
 5.) Have thirsty kids? Skip the soda and quench their thirst with healthy choices like water, low fat milk or seltzer water with a little added fruit – yum. |

Week #2
|
 1.) Meals are a great time to play follow the leader, and you’re the leader. Eat your vegetables and your kids will too. |
 2.) Try the new ‘fast food’ … it’s healthy food fast! Plan ahead – cut up fruits and vegetables so they are at your finger tips when hunger strikes. Cook extra servings and freeze them for later. |
 3.) Want more energy? Then hydrate! Your body needs 6-8 cups of fluid every day. Choose water – it’s the clear choice. |
 4.) Expand your family’s taste horizons -- explore the world of food. Enjoy a meal from a different culture each week. Have each family member share something they learn about that culture. |
 5.) Not all fats are created equal. Choose healthy fats like olive or canola oil and enjoy foods like avocados, nuts, seeds and fish. |
