BAM! Body and Mind was created by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for kids and teachers. The site offers a fun, interactive approach to raising kids' awareness of health issues, and ways to make their bodies and minds stronger. Topics covered include nutrition and fitness, disease, mental health, peer pressure and relationships. The site is also a resource for teachers who want to incorporate health issues into the classroom. In designing this site, the CDC collaborated with teachers to find out which health and science issues would be most applicable to their students and would complement their existing lesson plans. Kids and teachers can benefit from interactive features such as activity cards and online quizzes that utilize colorful graphics. BAM! is an educational and fun way for kids to learn about keeping their bodies and minds healthy, strong and safe.
