Play 60

Everyone who is involved in the health and physical education aspect of their profession, knows that children are becoming less active as time goes on. There needs to be more way to get children active. Knowing that physical education program are being cut all over the country is a wake up call that we need something outside of schools to help us reduce this obesity epidemic we have in our hands. What is a better way than involving the NFL? By involving the NFL, younger children would like to be more involved because they look up to professional athletes. If children know Hines Ward is eating fruits and vegetables, they will want to eat fruits and vegetables. It will encourage children to play outside rather than stay inside and play video games. We need more people to get involved in helping younger generations to live a healthy lifestyle to reduce many diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and high blood pressure. Play 60 is the best program we have right now in order to get children active and we need more people within communities to help!
