Drinking plenty of water to stay hydrated.

Being fit and doing lots of exercise.

Not sitting down all day.

Being happy, healthy and safe!

Why does it matter?

So our bodies can grow and we will be strong adults.

To help children learn better.

To have a good life-style.

So that we don’t get heart disease or diabetes when we grow up.
