Yesterday was "Walk to School Day" at Heritage Elementary. The kids were all excited (not that they don't ride their bikes or walk every other day) because Dad decided to go in late so that he could walk to school with them. Once they got to the school they got a necklace and a lanyard. Each time they do laps they get little feet charms to attach to their necklace and once they have completed a full marathon they get special awards/prizes.
This program goes until March of next year. I think this is great because it gets kids active (which I am all about) and learning about why exercise is good for their health. Way to go kids, and I hope that they are able to go all-the-way!!!
