Did you know that schools nationwide are cutting recess time due to limited resources, which can impede on your children’s physical development? It seems silly that taking PLAY out of a kids school day- think how stressed we get when we have NO breaks at school. Now imagine your kids intaking ALL that knowledge during a typical school day with NO break. Stressful just thinking about it, isn't it? 


In the past twenty years, children have lost an average of 8 hours of recess a week and some schools no longer provide play time for students, and according to the American Academy of Pediatricians, the lack of playtime is a national crisis leading to a growing epidemic; childhood obesity. So what does a responsible parent do?

dannon rallyforrecess logoGovernment and public health agencies recommend children engage in at 60 minutes of mild to strenuous activity each day.To help rally moms and kids around this cause, Dannon Danimals, nutritious on-the-go dairy drinks and low-fat yogurts containing calcium for kids, is launching a national initiative called “Rally for Recess”.

“Rally for Recess” is designed to create healthy competition, pitting school against school! Five schools have the opportunity to win new playground equipment and an all-day recess celebration.

Through February 8, 2012 purchasers can find codes on Danimals packaging to enter and register.

  1. Get outdoors and jump rope, hoola hoop, climb a tree, shoot marbles, climb the monkey bars, run through a field of wildflowers, and more with your kids. Physical activity is good for the mind of the child in all of us.

  3. One way I get my kids moving more is by moving with them. They are always more willing to run and play if I am doing it with them. cwitherstine at zoominternet dot net

  5. One of our kids' favourite things to do is take a country road trip and visit all the various school playgrounds. We do this on a Saturday or throughout the summer months, and spend about a half and hour at each playground. Then the kids talk about which one was best, what yard had new things added this year and what playground we definitely have to visit next trip. They love this "adventure" and we all have fun!
