Dear Parents,

It is important that you encourage your children t engage in at least an hour of physical activity everyday. The importance of this is that it can decrease the chances for your child of developing any diseases such as obesity, diabetes and even cardiovascular disease in the future.

Here are some tips:

1. walk around the neighborhood with friends or pet if have one
2. jog
3. play family based games such as tag, flag football, basketball, wiffleball, or soccer
4. Have fun with it, get your kids moving just by getting them to walk outside and engage.
