Free School Wellness Kits
The National Dairy Council®, Midwest Dairy Council, and the National Football League® are offering schools a free Wellness Activation Kit to help students make positive changes in their eating and exercise habits. The Wellness Activation Kits will include display pieces that can be used throughout the school and will feature kid-centric nutrition and "Play 60" messages. Online tools will support the Wellness Activation kits and will include items like a student "pledge" to eat healthy and be physically active, success stories, sticker art, and logos.
The wellness materials and Web site can be used to complement the school's wellness programs, or to help a school implement Game On! The Ultimate Wellness Challenge -a new (free) program from Action for Healthy Kids.
This program is available for the 2008/09 school-year, and is targeted at elementary and middle schools-though any school may order a kit. (One per school.) Order online now at www.SchoolWellnessKit.org to ensure availability and timely delivery.
The School Wellness Kits provide a fun and engaging way for you and others in your school to impact student health through improved nutrition and physical activity. We hope you'll join us in the Wellness Revolution! Order online now; quantities are limited!
