The United States is facing a potentially devastating public health crisis of overweight and obese citizens. More than twice as many children are overweight now than three decades ago. The problem with being overweight is more than just physical; it affects the whole child. In response, the Green Bay Packers and Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield are proud to present Fit Kids, an exciting program that is being offered to all fourth grade classrooms throughout the state of Wisconsin. The Fit Kids program is designed to tackle obesity through the instruction of teachers, with assistance from Green Bay Packers players.
Fit Kids is a FREE year-long fourth grade curriculum designed to promote healthy living by focusing on the physical, nutritional and social aspects of good health. Each month, a new topic is explored, including: Get Together, Get Out, Get Fueled, Get Cooking, Get Moving, Get Bendy, Get Happy and Get Fit. Green Bay Packers players kick off each new section with a video encompassing the theme for that month, in addition to appearing on various program posters.
Fit Kids was developed in 2004 by several educators in the Green Bay Area Public School District, with support from the Green Bay Packers, CBS 5 WFRV-TV and the Karma Group. Several other districts adopted the program for the 2005-06 school year, and in 2006-07, the program rolled out statewide. Currently in its ninth year, the program has been adopted by over 335 school districts in the state, with thousands of students receiving the benefit of the successful curriculum. Within these districts, the program has been incorporated by fourth-grade classroom teachers, physical education teachers and school nurses, and integrated into their lessons as they chose.
