On the MMMMove!
New Free Professional Development Opportunity
Being physically active improves a child’s overall health, especially for ages 0-5 when their bodies are growing every day. When children exercise, they feel good.
Physical activity promotes:
• Maintaining a healthy weight and strong bones
• Building strength, flexibility and endurance
• Enhancing motor skills, social skills and brain development • Integrating activity into the daily routine
Child Care Resource Center (CCRC), in partnership with California State University Northridge (CSUN), is now offering a free opportunity for you to learn more about how to integrate age appropriate physical activities in your child care environment.
Call a CCRC Resource & Referral Specialist @ 818-717-1000 or 661-789-1200 to enroll today.
*To qualify for this program, child care providers must live within six (6) miles of California State University Northridge.
