Better Health have teamed up with Disney to help get kids active. Using some of their favourite characters from Disney’s Encanto and Frozen, Disney and Pixar’s Lightyear and Marvel’s The Avengers, they will be inspired to be more active whilst having fun throughout the summer and beyond.

The Chief Medical Officer (CMO) recommends that children have at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity every day. This can be achieved by one daily session or through shorter bursts of 10 minute activity. The 10 Minute Shake Up games help to make this recommendation more manageable. Through playing these games, kids will build skills and grow in confidence, and most importantly, have fun!
