At BestStart Totara Street we held a Red Heart Day to celebrate and learn about what we can do to keep ourselves healthy.

We had a healthy Vegetable table out in the foyer - lots of people stopped and looked at the choices and were able to talk about what the different vegetables were! Most were taken home to be enjoyed!!!

Cath, from Bike Taupo, came to visit - supporting our tamariki to grow their biking skills, their balance, coordination and strength.

Within the centre we had lots of physical activities available- Trampoline, Yoga, Dancing and all our usual outdoor adventures with climbing, running, biking and jumping!! Physically active play, korikori, is great for hand to eye coordination, spatial awareness, balance, muscle development, flexibility and so much more!!

There was a lot of play food and games happening throughout the rooms. These help prompt conversations around food, learning names and talking about the different kinds of foods - Healthy Choices and Occasional Treats.

Here are some fun photos from our day!! Let's all grow happy and healthy hearts!!
