I found a great way to support kids around the world! Simply buy a fabulous tote bag from Amazon.com and you will feed a child for one full school year! Join Lauren Bush and the UN World Food Programme to help fight hunger. Buying this great bag sold exclusively at Amazon.com for only $59.95 will literally feed a child for an entire school year. Some of the countries that receive aid from the UN Food Programme include Guatemala, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Chad, Lesotho, Tanzania, and Honduras. The meals help the kids get through school on a full stomach and even encourages some kids to come to school who otherwise may not attend. The bag is sturdy, reversible, well constructed, stylish and made of natural burlap/organic products. Most importantly, better educated kids have a better chance at life. Get your bag sold exclusively through Amazon.com and take it to your local farmer's market! Remember, neither paper nor plastic bags are better at the grocery store. Instead, bring your own bag (or recycled grocery store bags) like this one and help a child at the same time. I cannot wait to receive my bag in the mail!

While I am talking about kids, I wanted to share a recent study published in the journal of Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise about kids and exercise. The 12 week study was conducted by a team from East Carolina University looked at attention in 3rd and 4th graders after performing a short bout of physical activity. The good news is that the amount of exercise needed to increase attention span in kids was only 10 minutes! The 10 minute "Energizers" were taught by teachers who received special training. These "Energizer" exercises are available to everyone through the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction's physical education website.
