Healthy eating and physical activity habits are key to your child’s well-being. Eating too much and exercising too little may lead to overweight and related health problems that may follow children into their adult years.
Family and school can take an active role to help children and young adolescents learn healthy eating and physical activity habits that last a lifetime.
The "Let's Move! Flash Workout" featuring Beyonce, is an initiative developed by NABEF and was scheduled to debut Tuesday, May 3rd 2011.

Education:
Children who carry a lot of excess weight are classed as being obese. Children can become obese if they regularly eat and drink more energy (calories) than their body uses or do too little physical activity. Obesity means children are more likely to develop serious health problems.
Last week, the World Dancing Day I wrote about all the beneficits of dancing in school curricula.
Dance is a good therapy for young people in the school. This time, dance movement therapy is used to fight obesity.
A good and enjoyable therapy!
