🚲🌎 Celebrate World Bicycle Day by getting the whole family moving!

From toddlers to teens, staying active helps children build healthy habits, boost confidence, and have fun along the way. This year, grab the bikes, head outside, and enjoy some family movement time together. Even small activities like bike rides, walks, playground time, or obstacle courses can make a big difference! 🚴‍♀️☀️

Looking for age-appropriate ideas to keep kids active? Check out this great resource from Penn State Extension: https://extension.psu.edu/fresh-ideas-for-keeping-children-moving-at-every-age

☀️ Hosting a summer party? Keep the fun going by keeping food safe! Remember to keep hot foods hot, cold foods cold, and never leave food sitting out too long in the summer heat. Using coolers, ice packs, and clean serving utensils can help prevent foodborne illness and keep your guests healthy all season long. 🍉🌭🧊
