With or Without a Disability, We All Need Activity!

posted by: Kenji category: Physical Activity and Disability, Physical activity in school

Since 1992 December 3rd has been recognized as the International Day of Persons with Disabilities. Physical activity is important for all people and there are vast benefits for those with or without disabilities. December 3 may have been yesterday but I’m posting my blog today because it’s important to care and be educated every day, not just on the day we’re reminded to be.

IWALK Day

posted by: Kenji category: Active Transportation, Physical activity in school

October is International Walk to School Month (IWALK) the premier event of the Active and Safe Routes to School Program. Today, October 7 is IWALK day for this year! If you’re physically able and your school is walking distance away, why not participate? Not only is it healthy for you, it is also an example of Active Transportation in action! It’s ok if you didn’t know it was IWALK day and you missed your chance to be a part of it because from October 5-9 its IWALK week!
