Impact Report FoodPlay Jefferson Elementary Turning kids on to healthy habits is easily done with free resources. This year 132 youth and 36 staff members from Jefferson Elementary were given the opportunity to attend FoodPlay Production (live theater show). The students and staff enjoyed music, juggling, colorful characters, magic, and motivating messages to get everyone on board behind healthy eating and active lifestyles. Youth learned to balance their nutrition and physical activity habits, critically evaluate media messages and peer pressures, and make choices that are good for their health. Following the live theater show a comprehensive resource kit with materials for everyone (students, teachers, parents, food service, and health staff) is given to the school. The event was well received and future plans are being set in motion to bring FoodPlay to other schools in McKinley County next year
