I once again had another good day. There were six kids there today, and this make me really happy. In the first I had three kids and in the third group I had two people. We played games and more games. I wanted to make today a really fun day. This was because it is Friday, and that means the weekend! After we played just some excercising games we played a more interesting game. I hid some food in the gym, in places that were sort of obvious, but not too obvious. I had the kids go and find what I had hidden in the gym. They were to only find one of the items that were hidden. Once they found an item they came back and we talked about what they had found on their hunt. After talking the were to, again, find some more of the random things hiding around. Finally everything was found and so we had a talk. The kids and I talked about healthy food and not so healthy food. We talked about why people go for junk food more than than they go for the healthy items. We as a group, came up with the fact that junk food is more convenient, and it is easier to get to and it. The healthier food seem to take longer to eat and longer to get ready. In all I think they took out of it that the healthy food is harder to work for, but it is better for you in the long run.
Lesson I learned today: Kids are more comfortable talking to you if you get down on there level. They also do better in smaller groups.
