Family Fun Night!

Family Fun, Food, and Fitness Night

Eisenhower Elementary 4^th graders along with family members enjoyed a great evening Thursday, April 7^th celebrating Nutrition and Wellness.  The evening consisted of four 20-minute stations that the groups rotated through.  The four stations were:

1)    Fitness Activities (a partner, a small group, and a game) –Importance of fitness and experiencing that Eisenhower Physical Education is about Fun, Fitness, and Learning how to take care of your body.

2)    A Healthy Snack and Food Groups Bingo (playing bingo and winning equipment for family fun while learning facts about the body, my plate and the food activity pyramid)

3)    Speed Stacks (Learning speed stacking, a fun innovative way to improve learning, coordination, and self esteem)

4)    First Aid for Choking (A Presentation and hands on learning the first aid for choking)

 “I want to thank the families and the community volunteers.  Their commitment to support healthy lifestyles sets a great example to the students participating in this program.”

This program is available because of a grant from the KSDE’s   Kansas Health Foundation.
