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:
• M&T Bank Paper Shredding for Building Bridges
• New York Life – Child I.D. Program
• Moon Bounce
• PHD Activities
• Great Big Faces (TBD)
• Healthy Snacks
• Face Painting
• YMCA Program Registration
