Posted By: How May I Help You NC on June 12, 2012 Posted by: Ali Kelley Looking for ways to get your family moving? On June 10, Cartoon Network launched their national Move it Movement Tour, offering kids and families across the country an opportunity to try new activities and sports. Now in its third year, the Move it Movement Tour hosts expos in 17 locations where several national organizations introduce families to strategies for fighting childhood obesity through free, kid-focused physical activity and healthy eating. The tour kicked off in Atlanta, GA and will wrap up in Houston, TX on August 12th. At each of the tour stops, kids and families will experience a range of sports and games – from basketball and soccer, to football and golf – that will help them get the 60 minutes of daily activity they need to stay healthy In addition, each tour stop will feature a Let’s Move! booth where kids and parents can sign up to earn a Presidential Active Lifestyle Award (PALA+). PALA+ challenges kids to be active and for 60 minutes a day and fuel up with healthy foods over a period of six weeks. The Let’s Move! booth will also offer healthy recipes and other nutrition and activity tips designed for families. More: http://www.letsmove.gov/blog/2012/06/08/le...
