Today for Wildcat Wednesday we had a representative from OSF Children's Hospital. She shared the top 5 healthy habits for kids. These will be in student folders this week for you to go over with your child! Daily children need 5 fruits and vegetables, 4 glasses of water, 3 good laughs, 2 hours or less screen time, and 1 hour of physical activity. Also 8 or more hours of sleep! #silaswildcats
