Go Play!

Get out of the house.  Put down your phone.  Do something different for just three days.  Does it make a difference?  Does it change the way you feel?  Take at least thirty minutes out of your day for a total of three days and go play outside.  Bring your friends or family.

Grocery Store Field Trip

Do you think eating healthy is cheaper or more expensive than eating processed foods?  Can people on a limited budget afford a balanced diet?  Could you buy a one days balanced diet, all three meals, for under $8?  What if you had a family of 4?  Could you still survive on $8 a day?
