Push2Play®
For good health, children aged 5 - 11 years should accumulate at least 60 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity every day.*
Research shows that only 7% of children and youth in Canada are meeting the new Physical Activity Guidelines of at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity per day.**
Push2Play® is here to help our children meet this guideline while having fun!
Push and play was created by Saskatchewan Blue Cross to inspire parents and children to live healthier lifestyles through active play every day. Together, we can encourage our children to make physical activity a part of their lives...for life!
Choose from the games and activities in our online Playbook, and get up and moving! Head outdoors, play hard and have fun!
