Fall is here, but that oesn’t mean we can’t still go outside and play! Our family loves going on walks and going to the park to play. I actually like going in the fall because it’s not so hot!
Fall is the perfect time to find those nature walks and new places to explore. My son will be playing some sport soon. It will be nice to sit on the sidelines and cheer him on. We are still finding new and fun places to explore in our new area. Fall will be a perfect time to do just that!!
Let me tell you a little bit about Together Counts. A nationwide program, Together Counts, inspires active and healthy living. Energy Balance is the principle behind their program, which means balancing the calories we consume with the calories we burn. Together Counts brings together more than 200 retailers, food and beverage manufacturers, restaurants, sporting goods and insurance companies, trade associations and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and professional sports organizations. They want to get more families eating and getting active together. The message is moderation, not “good food vs. bad.”
We always went to our local fair in January, as a family and walked around and ate the good foods. But never did we pig out and feel bad. We got one item from a vendor and shared. That way we got to try more foods but in moderation!
Together Counts also wants kids to get active and healthy in school to help reduce childhood obesity. Right now they are running three sweepstakes with more than $150,000 in prizes! Enter your child’s school for their chance to win!
You can find out more about Together Counts on their website http://www.togethercounts.com/home
