Welcome to LONG LIVE KIDS for Educators
View and print the Long Live Kids curriculum
Children spend a great deal of their waking hours with their teachers, and teachers get to know kids -- both groups and individuals -- better than just about anyone. Educators see first hand that children need academic skills for success in the world, but there is also a growing awareness that in order to secure a healthy future, children's bodies need exercise as well as their minds.
Long Live Kids is an engaging educational program that takes the complex issue of childhood obesity and works to find kid-friendly solutions through helping children understand that a healthy lifestyle comes when you "eat smart, move more and be media wise." With a comprehensive curriculum for children in Kindergarten to Grade 8 that adheres to existing curriculum guidelines, teachers can blend Long Live Kids seamlessly into their classroom days while meeting provincial requirements.
Long Live Kids is a one-of-a-kind Canadian program that brings together industry, government and issue experts and community organizations to develop and deliver one important part of the solution to troubling statistics about children's health. Long Live Kids is an initiative of Concerned Children's Advertisers, the producers of the Canada-wide TV&ME media literacy education program and 15 years of television social messaging on issues of challenge in children's lives.
