We are excited to kick off our 2nd series for our Homeschoolers this semester.  Our "Growing Strong: Healthy & Happy Kids" series will run for 7 weeks.  We will focus on building a strong foundation for lifelong health through balanced nutrition, regular exercise, restful sleep, positive friendships, and effective stress management.  Our Thursday workshop series will include a meaningful discussion, fun games & activities and art or science projects. Our goal is always to foster a positive atmosphere where kids can form meaningful friendships, learn to manage the pressures of daily life, and embrace a holistic approach to self-care.

Topics will include: 

Introduction to the Series:
In this series, we’ll explore the importance of health and happiness in shaping strong, confident individuals with great character. Each session will cover a unique theme, providing kids with the tools they need to overcome the challenges of growing up while fostering positive relationships and boosting self-esteem.

Nutrition 

This week we'll discuss the importance of eating right and getting proper nutrition for our bodies. The kids will participate in fun activities where the kids can share their favorite foods. We'll also provide information about healthy food choices and encourage them to try new, nutritious options.

Exercise

We'll discuss all the great ways kids can get exercise, including how much they should get each day. We’ll also introduce activities that don’t even feel like exercise! The kids will learn how important exercise is for our hearts.

Hygiene

Taking care of our bodies is really important as kids grow older. On this day, we’ll discuss ways to maintain good hygiene, such as showering daily, brushing our teeth properly, and flossing.

Stress & Anxiety

A really important area that impacts our health is managing stress and anxiety. We’ll discuss what stress and anxiety are, ask the kids to share examples of what stresses them out, and most importantly, teach them how to manage stress.

Positive Friendships 

This week we will share the importance of having positive friendships and how they can benefit our health. If we are in a friendship where we don’t feel valued or respected, it can negatively impact our well-being. We will discuss what positive friendships look like and qualities of a good friend.  

Celebration of the Series
To wrap up, we’ll celebrate all the lessons learned and the personal growth that has taken place. The kids will reflect on their journey, share their experiences, and celebrate the progress they’ve made in building confidence and character.
