As a teacher or recreation leader, you have the opportunity to enhance children's bone health and muscle strength by using the evidence-based programs and activities provided in Building Strong Bones & Muscles. The book offers practical games and activities that are -research based so you know recreational or PE time is spent on effective, health-promoting activities; -classroom tested to ensure the activities are not only worthwhile but also fun for children; -easy to implement by the general classroom teacher or other leader because they use commonly available physical activity equipment or no equipment at all; -fully illustrated to make the games and activities easy to implement with minimal preparation with the use of reproducible task cards; and -appropriate in a variety of settings, with activities and teaching techniques for three developmental levels, multiple cross-curricular connections, and activity variations.
