My Tip of the Week: Help Keep Kids Healthy
Is your group -- like so many others -- putting a focus these days on keeping children healthy? From exercise (and eating right) to the H1N1 virus to cough and cold and even to hand-washing, there are just so many concerns these days that affect our kids' health.

your group -- like so many others -- putting a focus these days on keeping children healthy? From exercise (and eating right) to the H1N1 virus to cough and cold and even to hand-washing, there are just so many concerns these days that affect our kids' health.
It's been interesting to watch so many groups getting proactive on the issue. Groups are spearheading flu clinics at school and hosting family events around healthy habits. Two great volunteers at my school just put together a weeklong health and wellness program, including a blood drive, pilates in the classrooms, and a road race. Love it.
With that in mind, we've recently put together a new dedicated space on ptotoday.com just about what groups are doing about Healthy School Kids. It's already a nice resource and will get better each month as we add even more of the best ideas we find from parent groups around the country. And -- bonus! -- we also expect to have a whole host of free offers (samples and the like) from health-focused companies available for "Healthy School Kids" groups, starting in the next month or two. Check it out now (and preregister your group) at ptotoday.com/healthy-school-kids.
