4th H for Health - Yummy Snacks!

Is your club participating in 4th H for Health?  I sure hope so!  4th H for Health is a fantastic challenge spreading in Tarrant County right now!  It encourages our 4-H youth (And adults!) to Drink Right, Move More, and Snack Smart!
It's an easy challenge that can be completed in as few as 8 meetings! (Club Meetings, Project Meetings, County Council meetings, etc.)
Here's a link to information about the project as well as a Health Tracker: https://www.edreach2.info/documents/137/4th_H_for_Health_Challenge_Overview_and_Tracker_Jan2015.pdf
As soon as you check off all 16 requirements, turn your form in to the County Office!  Everyone who completes the challenge will get a cool prize!

For now, here's some delicious (And nutritious!) snack ideas that you can start offering at club meetings to get your club a head start!

-Chocolate Covered Strawberries
-Orange Slices
-Ants on a Log
-Frozen Grapes
-Cucumber Slices
-Tomatoes
-Frozen Yogurt
-Fruit Smoothies
-Detox/Fruit Infused Water
-Apple Slices
-Cheese Cubes
-Deviled Eggs
-Watermelon
-Banana Bread

And there's tons more you could make!  Be sure to have your club stay active at least 15 minutes each meeting, as well, to complete the challenge as quickly as possible.

So what are you waiting for?  Get out there and GET HEALTHY!
