  • EAT HEALTHY

  • GET TOGETHER
  • GO OUTSIDE 
  • SLEEP WELL

Families can learn more about how to keep kids active and engaged this summer and how to “Put Play in Their Day” with interactive games, engaging and creative family activities, to encourage children and families to adopt behaviors that support a healthier lifestyle. 

Every year in April, thousands of kids and families celebrate the annual YMCA Healthy Kids Day – the nation’s largest health day for kids and families – hosted at your local YMCA.Through YMCA Healthy Kids Day, YMCAs help families play more, embrace nutritious food choices and build stronger connections within the family and with others.

Healthy Family Home™

Healthy Family Home™ is a community partnership with the YMCA, funded by Eli Lilly and Company. This free resource has been developed to help families across America with young children assess and modify their home behaviors and environments to help support improvements in health and well-being.

Healthy Family Home leverages two of the most powerful forces affecting health and well-being: 1) the family home, and 2) the proven impact of small, sustainable changes.
