At the Children's Health Fair on Friday, students were engaged, educated and entertained by all manner of presentations on topics including asthma, cancer, tobacco use, exercise, nutrition, disabilities and general safety. There were games, videos of safety measures and animated figures doing cool and fun movements to follow along, question-and-answer time with professionals, life-sized body parts showing healthy and diseased tissues, mock lungs actually breathing; plus plenty of fun exercise: obstacle courses, group stretching and coordination exercises led by fitness experts and coaches, bouncing balloons in the air.
