Fitness DAWGS

Your child is quiet.
The house is finally calm.
And the tablet feels like a lifesaver…
But what if the thing helping in the moment is quietly affecting your child in ways most parents never think about?
👀 This week’s WATCH OUT NOW may change the way you look at screen time forever.

🎉 Congratulations to Karen Parker, the recipient of the first-ever Fitness DAWGS Scholarship! 🎉

Karen, a graduating senior at Hopewell High School, has been awarded a $2,500 scholarship as she prepares to continue her educational journey this fall at North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University majoring in Nursing.

This moment is especially meaningful to us because Hopewell Public Schools was the very first school division to implement the Fitness DAWGS curriculum. Seeing students like Karen excel reminds us why we do this work each and every day.

We celebrate Karen and can't wait to see all she will accomplish. 💙💛🐾

Stress has a way of sneaking up on us. Over the past two weeks, I found myself feeling overwhelmed, easily irritated, and mentally drained because of everything that I HAD to do. Then I did something simple — I went on a bike ride. 🚴🏾‍♀️

That movement shifted my entire attitude. What started as stress turned into gratefulness. My mind became clearer, my mood improved, and I was reminded how grateful I am that I HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY to do the things I do. 💛

Sometimes we think exercise is only about weight loss or fitness, but moving your body also helps:
✨ Reduce stress
✨ Improve mood
✨ Increase energy
✨ Clear your mind
✨ Improve sleep

Most kids’ plates look the same…
Beige. Brown. (chicken nuggets, french fries, etc.)

But what if that is exactly the problem? 👀

There is something most parents are not being told about their child’s food…
And it has nothing to do with calories or picky eating.

It comes down to one simple question:
How many colors are on your child’s plate? 🎨

Those colors are doing far more than making food look pretty… they are directly impacting your child’s growth and health.

Don’t Drop the Ball Now!!!

We’re in May… and if we’re being honest—this is when routines start to slip.

Later bedtimes.
Quick meals.
Less movement.

Summer is so close, it’s tempting to say, “We’ll get back on track later.”

But here’s a gentle reminder for all of us—adults and children:

💡 Don’t drop the ball now.

Healthy habits don’t just apply to our children—they start with us.

Our kids are watching what we do every single day.

The good news? It doesn’t take a lot.
✔️ Drink more water
✔️ Take a short walk
✔️ Add a fruit or vegetable to your meals
✔️ Stick to a consistent bedtime

Small things. Done consistently.

❤️ I’ll be honest—this is the time of year I have to check myself too. It’s easy to say, “I’ll start again next week…”

But I’ve learned—there is no perfect reset.

There’s just the next right choice.

As a pediatrician, I see this all the time…

Parents think “just a few extra minutes” at night will not hurt.

But it can actually make it harder for your child to fall asleep, affect their behavior, and even impact their growth.

Fitness DAWGS This Is Why Your Child Won’t Go to Sleep - Fitness DAWGS Parents' Corner (week 343)

Happy Earth Day 🌎!!!

I didn’t want to step into my new role as a board operator.

It felt like a LOT—and every mistake would be broadcast for EVERYONE to see.

I was afraid.

But I was reminded:
👉🏽 In order to grow, we must do hard things… even scared.

Growth doesn’t happen in comfort zones. It happens when we show up anyway.

So I’ll ask you:
What are you avoiding because it feels uncomfortable?

Maybe it’s time to take that step—scared and all.
