Description

This is an Association-Wide Event happening at all of our YMCAofCM Branches. Please contact your local branch for details. 

To kick-start physical activity and learning now and throughout the summer, the YMCA of Central Massachusetts is celebrating Healthy Kids Day® with a FREE community event for kids and families. YMCA’s Healthy Kids Day®, the Y’s national initiative to improve families’ health and well-being, features activities such as music, games, and arts and crafts to motivate and teach families how to develop a healthy routine at home.

Healthy Kids Day is the Y’s national initiative to improve health and well-being for kids and families. The Y hopes to use the day to get more kids moving and learning, creating healthy habits they can continue while they’re away from the classroom. When kids are out of school, they can face hurdles that prevent them from reaching their full potential. Research shows that without access to out-of-school learning activities, kids fall behind academically. Kids also gain weight twice as fast during summer than during the school year. With all that’s going on in the world right now, Healthy Kids Day is a reminder to families that we can help ensure all children have access to what they need to reach their full potential, even during out-of-school time.
