Ask children: What kind of game are the children playing in the photo? (tug-of-war, seeing who can pull the rope the hardest). How are the children in the photo staying fit? (moving around a lot, pulling with their arms). Ask children: How do you like to stay fit? (answers will vary). Say: There are many ways that we can keep our bodies healthy. We can play outside. We can eat vegetables and fruits. What are some other things that we can do? (drink water, play sports, eat foods from the five food groups).
