Green Hour® is proud to be partnered with:

 

We Can!

We Can!™ (Ways to Enhance Children's Activity & Nutrition) is a fast-growing, national movement of families and communities coming together to promote healthy weight in children and youth through improved food choices, increased physical activity, and reduced screen time.

 

 

Good

The Good To Grow program, a program of the Association of Children's Museums, helps families learn about the importance of

  • Eating good foods (in the right amounts)
  • Getting plenty of exercise
  • Tracking screen time (computer and TV)
  • Connecting with the outdoors.

 

 

CenterCenter for SCREEN-TIME Awareness (CSTA) is the leading international nonprofit organization dedicated to providing people with information on the impact of electronic screened media on health, education, families, communities and society. Having this information makes it possible for people to live healthier lives in functional families and vibrant communities as they take control of the electronic media in their lives and not allow it to control them.

 

Take A Child Outside Week, a program of the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, is designed to help break down obstacles that keep children from discovering the natural world. By arming parents, teachers and other caregivers with resources on outdoor activities, our goal is to help children across the country develop a better understanding and appreciation of the environment in which they live, and a burgeoning enthusiasm for its exploration.

 

Alliance for ChildhoodAlliance for Childhood promotes policies and practices that support children’s healthy development, love of learning, and joy in living. Our public education campaigns bring to light both the promise and the vulnerability of childhood. We act for the sake of the children themselves and for a more just, democratic, and ecologically responsible future. Their major project at the moment is the restoration of children's play, especially outdoors and in early childhood classrooms.
