Take 15 for the Health of It is a statewide initiative designed to help Maryland families develop strategies for healthy living.  The campaign will provide practical tools families can use to help their children develop good eating habits, enjoy physical activity, and talk about sensitive issues like substance abuse. 

Parents and educators will find resources for children from birth through age 18.  Materials will be distributed through schools and public libraries and also will be available on the Take 15 Web site.

Take 15 for the Health of It builds on the already popular Take 15 for the Family…Building a Lifetime of Learning initiative, which encourages parents to spend at least 15 minutes a day with their children, turning everyday activities into learning experiences.
