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:
• Moon Bounce
• Face Painting
• Horses
• Arts & Crafts
• PHD Van
• Kids vs. Parents Kickball
• Healthy Snacks
• Q&A with a Personal Trainer
• Summer Camp Registration
• Tennis
