Physical Activity<\/strong>
Handouts: Flexibility Flow<\/a><\/strong>; Chalk Your Walk<\/a><\/strong>
Happy Cinco de Mayo! Starting the day with some exercise will offset the tacos and guacamole you may eat later! Today\u2019s combination of gentle yoga and a chalk walk are great ways to have fun and stay active!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Today\u2019s yoga, the Flexibility Flow<\/a>, from the Kids Work It Out program focuses on poses that lengthen and stretch the muscles, prevent injury and improve athletic performance. Stretching with yoga is a great way to get your kids moving in the morning or a way to relax after a long day.

    Nutrition and Healthy Eating<\/strong>
    Handout:     Hydration Handout<\/a>
    Spring is in the air and warmer weather is around the corner. As the weather warms up it\u2019s even more important to stay hydrated- but it\u2019s important to make sure your children do so in a healthy way. Sports drinks may seem like a good healthy option to keep your children hydrated BUT they are loaded with sugar. The next time your children ask you for a sports drink perhaps you can have them try coconut water instead! Coconut water is a great lower-sugar, lower calorie alternative to sports drinks.
    Try this Citrus <\/span>Coconut<\/span> water<\/span><\/strong> recipe this week:
    \u2022 1\/2 lemon washed and sliced
    \u2022 1\/2 lime washed and slices
    \u2022 Fill a large cup or water bottle with ice
    \u2022 Squeeze and drop in lemon and lime slices
    \u2022 Pour in 2 cups of coconut water
    \u2022 Serve and enjoy!
    For other healthy hydration ideas check out this     handout from Food Hero<\/a>
    \u2022 Remember to stay hydrated!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
