INTERACTIVE ACTIVITIES

Have an Alphabet Day!
Have your child choose a letter in the evening — any letter. The next day, create activities surrounding things that begin with that letter. For example, if the letter is “L,” you might include a lemon in something you eat that day, think of animals that begin with “L,” and come up with silly phrases where each word begins with “L,” like “Lovely Little Leopard.”

Create Your Own Workout!
Create your own “high intensity” workout with your family. Each person chooses their favorite moves, such as lunges, jumping jacks, squats, or even hops. Using a timer, do each workout move for 20 seconds, then take a 10-second break. Do four sets of each move, then take a 30 second break. This “interval training” is fun, fast-paced and really gets hearts pumping!

Try Parent-Child Plank Pose!
It strengthens your core — abdominal, back, hips and pelvis — which can help you avoid pain in your back, shoulders, knees and other areas. Lie facedown, raising yourself up on your forearms. Keeping your body straight and gaze down, holding for 10-30 seconds. How many times can you repeat the pose?
