ST. JOSEPH HEALTH
More than 200 children turned out for Covenant Health's "Kids in the Kitchen" event, a morning of healthy activities at the Lubbock, Texas, campus. The kids visited six "stations" staffed by health experts and volunteers. One station taught manners, with people dressed up as characters and acting out scenes; another taught "light saber" martial art moves; others taught children to mix up smoothies and to cook chicken burgers; at another, children decorated potatoes to look like mice; and at the last, children created drawings, using different colors to represent their emotions.
Children learned about healthy eating, staying fit and emotional and spiritual well-being at the spring event.
