YMCA Healthy Kids Day
Each year I have seen this event and really love to attend the event that the Tampa YMCA puts on at Curtis Hixon Park in Tampa, Florida. We are members of the YMCA and we love their programs, the adult classes, their youth sports, the staff…everything!
As a We Can! Community Partner, one of the Fit Kids Playground missions is promote reducing screen time among families. This seems like a simple concept, but as parents, we struggle with knowing how much is too much, when to say when and with technology becoming more rapidly integrated into homework, the lines can easily become blurred. And this week, April 30th, actually kicks off National Screen Free Week! Will your family be participating?
Fit Kids is launching a series of giveaways each month that might help you push away the screen and get you and your kids out of the house! Really simple. Turn off the TV, the computer, the video games first. Then go do something! Anything! Go outside. Play a board game. Talk with your kids. Go to a museum. Turn on some music. Color. If you can help set an example, all the best!
Raising a family can be expensive so we hope our giveaways might be a special treat to help you do something fun with the kiddos for an afternoon.
Our first Push Away The Screen Giveaway is from Disney on Ice! They are coming to the Tampa Bay Times Forum on May 17th -20th.
