September 21st is World Peace Day
International Day of Peace
The International Day of Peace (“Peace Day”) is observed around the world each year on September 21st. Established in 1981 by unanimous United Nations resolution, Peace Day provides a globally shared date for all humanity to commit to Peace above all differences and to contribute to building a Culture of Peace.
Peace Day is a reminder to focus on peace and has grown into a global movement. This year’s theme is Together for Peace: Respect, Safety and Dignity for All.
Home from School and…HUNGRY!
After School Snacks Can be Healthy and Easy
When your kids get home from school you can bet they’ll be starving. Most primary grade students eat their lunch well before the noon hour so by the time they come through the front door, they’re very hungry!
After school snack time offers an opportunity to teach your children about healthy food choices. They could plow through a bag of chips or cookies and they’d feel full. But with just a tiny bit of planning and some smart shopping, you can keep healthy snack options available to your kids for after school.
