Fuel Up to Play 60 encourages youth to eat healthy and move more—and studies suggest that well-nourished, physically active kids can be better students.
Better nutrition, including eating a healthy breakfast each day, helps students get the nutrients they need and may help improve their academic performance. What's more, being physically active may help students improve self-esteem, cognitive function and test scores.
And with Fuel Up to Play 60, healthy students can have more fun! By participating in the program, youth have the opportunity to earn rewards and prizes. Those students who help build the program may benefit even more. In fact, researchers say peer group interaction may help to influence healthy choices and student involvement can lead to motivation and engagement in learning.
Sign up to be part of this free program, and find everything you need to help students make real, school-wide change.
