This rain or shine event is free and open to all area families. Healthy Kids Day is the nation’s largest health day for children supporting the healthy growth and development of kids and families.

YMCAs across the country will host this event which serves as an opportunity for kids and families to “Put Play in Their Day!” This special event uses free, fun, engaging and creative activities to encourage children and families to adopt behaviors that support a healthy lifestyle.

YMCA Healthy Kids® Day activities for kids and grown-ups will include healthy tips, brain games, health education, screenings, physical activities, and dance instruction sessions with actress/dancer Alyson Stoner, a Disney Channel star who has appeared in many films such as Camp Rock and Cheaper by the Dozen 1 and 2. During her appearance, Stoner, who was reared in Toledo and now resides in California, will promote her Alyson Stoner Project ( www.alysonstonerproject.com ), a dance instructional DVD with emphasis on health and nutrition.
