Getting Through Finals and Beyond
We’re heading into finals week. You can help your students by providing a supportive environment at home. Provide them with lots of healthy snacks, good sleep patterns (8-10 hours/night) and refreshing recreation in between study sessions and final exams. Help them plan healthy celebrations!
Managing Family Stress During Holiday Season
Healthy Feet
Support your student’s growth and development by encouraging healthy foot care – that includes choosing supportive shoes.
Thinking about holiday gifts? How about things that make being healthy fun!
- Fun water bottles to stay hydrated through the school day
- Beanies to stay warm through cold weather
- Workout clothes and equipment to encourage physical activity
- Journals to encourage mindful time and thought
- Board games to encourage fun and connection
- Fun shoes for walking/hiking (and socks to match!)
- Milk frother and mug (for Healthy Hot Chocolate)
No time for breakfast?
Ask your student what kind of portable healthy food you can make available for them to grab on their way to school:
- Green smoothie
- Fruit (fresh and dried)
- Nuts
- PB&J
- Healthy muffins
