Healthapalooza

This week at Sadie's school is:

They had a daily challenge that Sadie was excited to partake in including meditating, eating healthy, getting plenty of sleep & exercising. On Monday she spent 10 minutes being mindful & meditating. Tuesday, they got to wear pajamas to school & were encouraged to get at least 9 hours of sleep. That's easy for her - she usually gets 11. Wednesday I got to the school at 6:45 in the morning to help set up for Walking Wednesday, where the teachers spread out amongst the neighborhood & everyone walked to school together. Since I volunteered all morning, Bryan was in charge of getting the girls up, fed & he got to walk them to school:

We were a little worried because it has been raining again all week, but somehow the rain held off for the morning just in time for them to make it to school. 

Today they asked all of the kids to turn off technology for the day. When I first explained it to Sadie she didn't understand the concept or like it. Go figure! We actually have days when we are busy & go without an IPad or tv, but when I explained it to her she just didn't get it. Thankfully they had a health fair tonight so that was a good distraction. When we got there she found Hadley right away & they checked out the firetruck:

Then I spent the rest of the night following the girls around as they went from booth to booth:

We talked to all kinds of health professionals & the girls got to participate in yoga, martial arts, gymnastics & so much more. Their favorite part was probably watching some of the dance performances since Kenzie was there:

The girls sat on the front row & were mesmerized, especially Sophie:

Maybe she will be the dancer in our family. For now, we'll just let Sadie stick to soccer with Kenzie & maybe Sophie can follow in her dance steps:
