Step 1
Know that exercise is the springboard for healthy homeschoolers at any age level. Make sure they get a physical before beginning exercise just to be on the safe side, then watch a recorded program or streaming broadcast from the Internet. Groups of homeschoolers can schedule fitness days to bring excitement, challenge and focus to exercise regimens.
-
Step 2
Understand that nutrition is fueled by the reminder that 'we are what we eat,' making time spent for menu planning a priority for every hungry student. Nutritional guidelines are freely available from the National Institutes of Health or the Federal Citizen Information Center which will inform homeschoolers of good menu choices to make the right choices as a healthy habit.

Step 3
Keep in mind that training a child to learn they should be healthy goes beyond making them superstar athletes or movie stars, it also applies to good chefs that run in local marathons or a family of four that goes mountain climbing together several times a month. For conscientious homeschooling parents it is more like rehearsing healthy habits that lead to good health and long life.
