Take a Break for Health!

4-H Health Month

February 2013

Providing healthy lifestyle programs to our youth is a common vision for all 120 counties across the state. During this month, 4-H Youth Development agents, volunteers and members will take a break for health during their club meetings, project nights, day camps, school programs and after school programs! Just incorporate any of these fun activities (or brainstorm your own) into your 4-H program!

Here are some ways you can "Take a Break for Health"

Prepare a healthy snack
Have a hula hoop contest
Make a stress ball
Vow to be drug free
Have a dance party
Stretch it out before your meeting
