Making songs to go with your healthy routines, making habits into games and showing enthusiasm yourself when practicing these habits.

You have make healthy habits fun by making them into songs (ie singing a song while washing hands). Also modeling a healthy habit as being fun is a great way for children to see it as fun. Games are another way or using a sticker chart for healthy habits.

One way to do this is to make building them centered around a game or activity . For example, creating a menu.

Do research to find games that corollate with the healthy habit your trying to accomplish. Like if you want the kids to run around the playground for exercise, make it a race or run along with them. Playing a clean up game or a washing hand game is fun too. Singing is also a added plus.

Children loves playing games or just anything entertaining really so to help them with healthy habits, we should try to make the habits into a game or just entertaining for them so it isn’t as “boring” in their child like minds

The way we try to make healthy habits fun are to sings songs while washing your hands or making healthy foods into fun shapes. This is also good for helping the children learn their shapes while eating healthy foods.
