Family Day: to relax or get active together?
by Brad Fournier, Executive Director
As parents, we are often encouraged to model the best behavior in our children. I remind this myself every time I am about to yell "Who left the milk out"?
We can also do this with our exercise routines. While we may all be interested in sleeping-in this long Family Day weekend, or catching that new movie that just came out or that Netflix special, we could also leave our own comforts and couches, find our mitts and scarves and join the kids outside! The local toboggan hill is always the easiest and fun place to keep active and it's just a short walk home for home chocolate!
If you and the family are looking for more Family Day activities though, City of Edmonton
has a few ideas to enjoy the day together whether it is inside or out.
Enjoy your Family Day!
Sincerely, the Alberta Diabetes Foundation
