Designed for parents and caregivers, the resources help families adjust to changing routines and support healthy habits at home and in the classroom.
New for the fall, families can access a Mental Health Toolkit and the Be the “I” in Kind message, to encourage children to learn kindness, build confidence and manage their feelings both at school and at home.
Families are encouraged to visit york.ca/HealthyKids as their one stop source for trusted tips and tools to help raise healthy, happy kids all year long.
