Nuffield Health have a useful Journal available to all. Please see details below:
In these unprecedented times, we know it’s important for children to be able to continue to look after their health and wellbeing. As an extension to SWAP, our School Wellbeing Activity Programme, we have created a wellbeing journal filled with challenges and activities to keep children happy, healthy and active whilst at home.
The journal is based on the four pillars of SWAP; how I eat, how I sleep, how I move, how I feel, and is aimed at children, but is a great resource for teachers and parents too and can support remote learning.
From inventing their favourite smoothie, recording the quality of their sleep, to building a home gym and expressing how they are feeling, the journal encourages children to look after their overall wellbeing.
There are two versions available for download on our website, one for print and an interactive version at www.nuffieldhealth.com/kidswellbeing
We hope you find this resource useful and a fun way for your children to stay happy, healthy and active.
