Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay! ???? Taking care of your child's mental health is just as important as their physical well-being. Here are a few ways to help your kids practice self-care: ??? Prioritize sleep: A consistent bedtime routine helps kids get the rest they need for emotional balance and focus. ?? Encourage healthy snacks: Nutritious foods fuel their brains and bodies for better mood and energy. Aim for fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lots of protein for a happy, healthy child! ??♂? Promote active play: Regular movement, whether it’s playing outside or dancing inside, boosts their mental and physical health. ?? Relax outdoors: Time in nature can reduce stress and improve their overall happiness. Supporting your child’s mental health early on creates a foundation for a lifetime of well-being.

?? It’s #TacoTuesday! ?? While many of us are enjoying delicious tacos and enchiladas today, not every child has access to the nutrition they need. With our afterschool meal program, kids across Ohio can count on balanced, nutritious meals - even when school is out. Together, we can fight child hunger and ensure every child gets the food they need to thrive. Support our mission today and make a difference in a child's life: https://lnkd.in/d73e6gD . . . #EndChildhoodHunger #CHAohio #causes #Ohio #nonprofit #DoGood #4Change #GiveBack #FeedKids #StrongerTogether #Charity #Community#CommunityImpact #CreekviewElementary #Creekview #Marysville #WeekendMeals #Taco #EndChildHunger #AfterschoolMeals #NutritionForAll
