Our class had registered for the Walk 30 Challenge where we planned to get outside and walk for 30 minutes a day from April 6th to May 9th. Please do your best to participate in this anyways!
Below is a list of other possible activities that you can be doing to stay active. Please make an effort to spend AT LEAST 30-60 minutes a day getting active and getting outside (while continuing to practice social distancing, of course). At the bottom of the list is a Neighbourhood Scavenger List and a BINGO sheet. Do your best to cross off each activity on the BINGO sheet over the next couple of months!
