YMCA Healthy Kids Day

Healthy Kids Day is the Y's national initiative to improve the health and well-being of families across the country.  On the day, Ys in DC, MD and VA hold events and encourage parents to make play dates with their kids every day as a simple way to become a healthier, more active and connected family.

The Y knows that many parents struggle to find the time and resources to incorporate physical activity and healthy habits into their kids' daily routine.  As a leading nonprofit for healthy living, the Y created Healthy Kids Day to celebrate and teach good health for kids, encourage active play and inspire a lifetime love of physical activity.

Activities for the day may include:
