5-2-1-0 is designed to encourage smart eating and physical activity for children and families.
BLEND is working to engage health care professionals in the prevention, assessment and treatment of overweight and obese children by promoting the 5-2-1-0 Wellness Program.
The concept focuses on making changes in nutrition and physical activity that can be both healthy and enjoyable.
BLEND Fit Kids Club
With childhood obesity at its all-time high, it's so important to get kids moving and fit; especially in the summer when kids have a tendency to become couch potatoes. The BLEND Fit Kids Club was created to encourage kids and families to get out and get active.

The more events you participate in the cooler the prizes and the more chances you have to win!

Healthy Kids Bill
Thanks to your in-person visits, letters, emails, and phone calls we were able to make real progress this year on state policy to address childhood obesity!
The Healthy Kids/PE Bill passed the House 121-7 and the Senate unanimously supported the bill. The new law will ensure more kids are provided quality physical education by enacting statewide standards. The bill also asks that the Minnesota Department of Education track the phy ed classes offered at schools around the state and asks them to make recommendations for how to use recess time to encourage more physical activity so that kids can get their recommended 60 minutes/day. The bill promotes transparency and promotes a discussion about these issues by creating a Healthy Kids Awards program that will recognize schools for promoting physical activity and better school nutrition. Finally, federally required school wellness policies will now be posted online so that all parents can monitor and participate in the implementation of their school's wellness plans.
Thank your legislators, send a message thanking your legislators for passing the Healthy Kids/PE Bill into law.
