"Your kids don't have to be athletes to exercise. Just make sure they get out there every day and play! They'll feel great, and so will you!"
— Goran Visnjic, ER
Play Every Day
60 minutes of activity is necessary to ensure balance in your child's life, and it's as easy as "play". 60:PLAY is a reminder that play happens everywhere, even if it's 30 minutes here or 20 there - and you control the clock. A child's mind can be refreshed and energized by play and enrich the important things in life, such as friends, family and school.
60:PLAY is an inspiration to parents to be creative with their time in the busy world we live in. It is about carving out options in life for your child - every day and any way.
Creative ways to look at 60:PLAY:
- Freshen up the brain by shooting hoops and riding a bike before homework
- Create games with pets that encourage running around, like fetch or even just taking them for a walk

- Race to the car instead of walking
Benefits of 60:PLAY:
