Family Activities at Home
The school years are a time of learning and development. They are also a time where children are still quite dependent on parents and carers. This is a great age to participate in fun, family-based activities that will help to develop lifelong healthy lifestyle habits.
Participating with and involving children in activities from backyard games to choice of meals and food preparation is a great way to role model healthy behaviours.
Create some ‘together time’ for family activities. Check out our ideas for home-based activities that will be fun and can involve the whole family together.
