FOR KIDS

Play
Whether it’s hide-and-seek in your yard or a board game in the family room, playing can activate the mind and body.
Create
Craft a mobile. Draw outside with sidewalk chalk. Make up a story. Express yourself by creating art!
Watch
Screen time can be beneficial when kids watch programs that help them learn and grow.
