Gifted Education Moorpark | Oak Crest AcademyMoorpark is a small city of approximately 34,000 people in Ventura County, California. As small of a city Moorpark is, it is booming with parks and outdoor activities. In fact, they have over 19 parks and a multitude of community recreational activities at the Arroyo Vista Recreational Center.
Getting outdoors is important for our health and wellness – especially for growing children. Teaching kids how to maintain a healthy lifestyle can make it a habit or way of life as they travel into adulthood. Not only is it good for our physical health, but our mind thrives when it receives the nutrition it needs. This is especially important for school-age children as it keeps the brain active, healthy, and growing developmentally.
Here are a few ideas for helping your kids stay healthy and learn lifelong habits:

– Teach your children about healthy foods. Discuss foods that are whole and healthy – let go of all the processed junk food. Perhaps taking your child to Underwood Family Farms in Moorpark can open their eyes. Take them on a tour of the farm and let them shop in the market. Or, stroll the grocery store aisles and look at ingredients and food labels so your child can begin to understand what good food and proper nutrition is.

– Enroll your child in a sport. Playing sports can benefit children in so many ways. They learn that there is a winner and loser, they learn teamwork, they can practice their social skills, and they work on physical fitness. The Arroyo Vista Recreational Center in Moorpark has a variety of sports such as basketball, baseball, etc.

– Help your child find a hobby. Discovering a hobby that we enjoy can benefit the mind and add to our overall wellness. The same goes for our kids. Work with them to discover something they enjoy and work to practice and perfect their newfound art. Whether its martial arts, drawing, or dancing – show your child the options and encourage growth in the chosen hobby.

– Get outdoors! Spend time with your loved ones outdoors. Go for a walk, ride bikes with your kids, visit a park. Moorpark has many parks – Campus Park, Magnolia Park, Glenwood Park, Peach Hill Park, Veterans Memorial Park, Walnut Acres Park, and so many more. Why not make a point to check out a new one each weekend? The point is to stay active because its enjoyable, not because you are want to make your kids exercise. Show them fun ways to stay active and it will lead to their future fitness.
The health of our kids is vital for their growth. At Oak Crest Academy we know that a healthy lifestyle only benefits the minds and bodies of our students. We strive to help our students meet their fullest potential – both inside and outside of the classroom.
