Get Kids Active! Facebook Campaign

Childhood obesity is one of the causes I feel very strongly about. It's so important to get kids off to a good start in life. If they start off obese, it brings with it a huge range of problems including diabetes and heart problems.

There's a Get Kids Active! Facebook Campaign right now by Activity Tree to help parents get their kids active through social media. Fans of Activity Tree can find and share ideas to keep their kids moving. They can also pass the “Get Kids Active!” sticky note to their friends and take fun polls. Parents can even search for kid's lessons, classes and camps to help their kids get moving. They have over 18,000 providers to search from! They even have kid's scholarships! I'm so glad they offer scholarships so more kids can take advantage of this.

Get your kids moving. Get them involved in an activity, sign them up for a camp or lessons.  There are so many different choices from ballet to basketball to karate to swimming.  Just get them moving and help them take these healthy choices with them into their adult lives.
