Summer – Why It’s Important for Kids to Stay Active
|
|
|
|
It is almost the end of the school year. Most parents don’t want their children spending their summer in front of a screen with texting as their only means of communication with the outside world.
In an age of screen addiction and childhood obesity, kids may need to get out and go for a run now more than ever.
Benefits of Being Active
- strong muscles and bones
- healthy weight
- decreased risk of developing type 2 diabetes
- lower blood pressure
- better sleep
- a better outlook on life
|
|
Physically active kids also are more likely to be motivated, focused, and successful. Mastering physical skills builds confidence and increased self-esteem at every age.
Consider signing your kids up for the Seattle Kids Marathon (link to page) to provide them a flexible, yet structured program to help motivate them to stay active and celebrate their success.

Meaning in every mile
PATH solves the world’s greatest health challenges through partnership and innovations. Our work spans more than 70 countries and benefits 150 million people every single year. When you run for Team PATH, there’s meaning in every mile.
An example of PATH innovation at work
To fight global malnutrition, PATH raised the nutritional value of rice by blending regular grains of rice together with special, nutrient-enhanced grains called Ultra Rice®. Best of all? The nutrients can be tailored to meet the needs of any population. So, when PATH and its partners in India launched a program to provide fortified rice to schoolchildren, they added iron—a specific nutrient lacking in many Indian children’s diets. Today,
lunches with fortified rice are served six times per week to 60,000 schoolchildren
, bolstering their immune systems and helping them to learn and grow. Ultra Rice® is launching in more schools soon and has been licensed to manufacturers in Brazil, Myanmar, and Cambodia.
