Childhood is a critical period of growth, development and learning. Positive health behaviors — like getting enough sleep, eating nutritious foods and being physically active — can help prevent diseases and improve health outcomes for children. This multi-week program teaches kids about the importance of developing healthy habits and lifestyles.
The Healthy Kids program is a fun and interactive virtual, five-week wellness course for children ages 8-12 and their families. The program helps participants develop healthy habits by teaching them to make nutritious food choices, prepare healthy meals, be physically active, and understand and manage their emotions. Best of all, they will learn to make small lifestyle changes that support long-term health and wellness.
Healthy Kids Program Details
Registered participants will receive all materials at the start of the five-week program, which is designed to be completed at their own pace from home. Weekly two-way communication ensures a personalized experience, supporting a successful learning journey. To get the most out of the program, participants are encouraged to engage with the content at least once a week and attend the live learning sessions.
This program is available at no cost to children ages 8 to 12 thanks to the generous donations made to the Foundation of Onvida Health.
