Did you know that kids burn less calories watching television than they would just staring at a wall?
Did you know that kids burn less calories watching television than they would just staring at a wall?

It’s true. But it’s not about counting calories. It’s about raising healthy, happy kids. Study after study describes the dangers associated with our children’s growing waistlines. But with our kids’ health at stake, where are the solutions that make sense for families and are fun for kids?

Switch™ is a solution. For the past year, we’ve been making it fun for families in Minnesota and Iowa to change what they DO, VIEW, and CHEW. Now we are ready to share their story with you.
Hear about it from families! Watch Switch™ Video.
