Empowering Young Girls through Health and Wellness: SMART Girls Program

SMART (Strength, Mastery and Resistance Training) Girls shows the importance of health and hygiene, and our recent classes have been a wonderful opportunity for our girls to dive deep into these vital topics. SMART Girls is designed to support the developmental needs of girls through a unique small-group program focused on health, fitness, prevention education, and self-esteem enhancement. Designed for three distinct age groups, our sessions combine dynamic activities, field trips, and mentoring opportunities with adult women. Together, we explore personal and societal attitudes and values while building essential skills for a healthy, fulfilling life.

Hands-On Learning

Recently, our girls participated in an engaging True or False activity that tested their knowledge of hygiene. This interactive game not only made learning fun but also sparked important conversations about common myths and facts related to health.

The Germ Activity

To illustrate the prevalence of germs and the significance of handwashing, we conducted a creative germ activity using lotion and glitter. The glitter represented germs, and after applying the lotion, the girls discovered just how easily germs can spread, even after washing their hands. It was an eye-opening experience that emphasized the importance of thorough handwashing and personal care.

Key Takeaways

Through these activities, our SMART Girls learned:

  • The importance of regular handwashing

  • How germs can easily transfer from one surface to another

  • Strategies for taking better care of their bodies

We are proud of the enthusiasm and curiosity displayed by our Members. These lessons will empower them to make healthier choices in their daily lives.

Thank you to everyone who participated and supported this educational journey. Together, we are building a healthier, more informed generation!
