This week, your challenge is to keep a food and activity journal for the entire family. Have the kids draw pictures of their meals and activities to make it fun and engaging. This will help you become more aware of your habits and identify areas for improvement.

Food and Activity Journal

Overview

Have a family meeting to discuss health and wellness. Each family member can share their thoughts and ideas about health goals and activities. This discussion is an opportunity to understand each other's perspectives and create a shared vision for the family's health.

Example Discussion Points

  • What does being healthy mean to each family member?

  • What are some health goals that are important to us as a family?

  • How can we support each other in achieving our health goals?

Assignment

  1. Discuss and set one health goal for the family to work on together. For example, the goal could be to cook and eat at least three healthy meals together each week.

  2. Each family member can suggest a fun family activity related to health and wellness for the upcoming weeks. For example, a family bike ride, a nature hike, or a dance party.

Remember, being healthy is a journey that the whole family can enjoy together. Celebrate successes, no matter how small, and support each other in making positive changes. Stay tuned for next week, where we'll explore family nutrition and meal planning!
