Childhood obesity is the biggest long-term health issue facing today’s children. Over three million children in Europe are obese and more than 21 million children are overweight, and these figures are rising significantly each year.
To help tackle this issue, ‘My Friend Boo’s’ Healthy Living strand aims to educate, entertain and inspire children and their families to adopt and enjoy a healthier lifestyle by making better food choices and getting active.
In our three episodes; Lucy, Ben and Jaq learn the importance of eating a balanced breakfast as they’re challenged to a game of Worldenball by the grumpy Zoreffatrons; In Magikos, they’re get active when they are invited to a very special Wizards 300th birthday party, and have all kinds of fun playing in the clouds and collecting shells by the sea; they also learn that snacks are important to keep energy levels up, and, that a little bit of everything is good for you too, even the occasional piece of chocolate cake…!
