- Maintain healthy metabolism
- Support a sturdy immune system
- Create efficient nerve and muscle impulses
- Regulate many body processes

Playing is about as natural for kids as eating, so keeping kids active is easier when there is time, toys, and other kids around to play with. Unfortunately, as kids get older this gets harder due to school, extracurricular activities, and the overall craziness that life can be some times. Good thing is that, whether or not they are into sports, there are plenty of ways to stay active and reap the benefits of better sleep, stronger bones, healthier weight, and better mindset. Find ways to get your kids excited to move by visiting: https://kidshealth.org/en/parents/active-kids.html

Don’t throw out your next egg carton (cardboard, though, please!) so that your child can use it to watch seeds turn into seedlings. Get them interested in gardening now and find out how to create such a great summer activity here. Not only will you teach them about responsibility and science, but eventually you may even gather your own produce to use in your home too!
