Healthy Kids' Club Promotes Physical Fitness

Peachtree Corners Fowler YMCA teaches children importance of a healthy lifestyle.

Play and stay healthy!

's Healthy Kids' Club is a fun program for our young members ages 3 through 12. The Club helps kids understand the importance of physical fitness and engages them in fun, physical and active play. The goal of the club is to engage, educate and promote a healthy lifestyle at an early age while hopefully establishing a life long habit.

Active play is not just fun but beneficial to the body. It improves your child's sleep and his or her mood by giving them a better attitude and an extra energy boost during the day.

It has been proven that 20 minutes of physical activity before starting homework can help your child unwind from the day and improve concentration, and what better way of bonding with friends and making new friends than by engaging in physical activity?

Healthy Kids' Club is offered Wednesday and Friday and is free to YMCA facility members. For more information contact the YMCA at 770-246-9622.
