Handout: Finding Focus Yoga Flow<\/a>
Today you will begin with yoga from Kids Work It Out. Then go on an adventure with characters from the Jungle Book!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Today\u2019s KWIO yoga sequence is called \u201cFinding Focus.\u201d This lesson will help you identify specific focus points that will help you balance during active poses. This teaches us how to intentionally choose what to focus our minds on, whether it be focusing on staying balanced in a challenging yoga pose, concentrating during a test, and even turning our attention inward. Check out this handout to follow along<\/a>!

    Nutrition and Healthy Eating<\/strong>
    F is for Folate<\/span><\/strong>
    Do you ever find yourself telling your children, “Don’t forget to take your vitamin!” or “Eat your fruits and veggies\u2014 they\u2019re packed with vitamins!” But what exactly are vitamins and how do we explain them to our children? Vitamins and minerals are substances that are found in foods we eat. Our bodies need them to work properly, especially children who are growing and developing. When it comes to vitamins, each one has a special role to play.
    Folate or folic acid also known as vitamin B9 is one of 8 B vitamins. It is found in nuts, fish\/meats and dairy and helps our bodies by converting our food into energy. It also helps improve blood flow, lowers blood pressure, and can improve our ability to complete physical activities.
    To get a daily dose of Folate have your children try one of these foods this week:
    \u2022 Spinach
    \u2022 Peanuts
    \u2022 Romaine lettuce
    \u2022 Sunflower seeds
    \u2022 Asparagus
    \u2022 Oranges
    \u2022 Brussel sprouts
    \u2022 Whole grains
    \u2022 Broccoli
    \u2022 Fish
    \u2022 Kidney beans
    \u2022 Eggs
