Remembering Recess

Recess–the word brings back so many great memories! When people asked me what my favorite subject was, I always answered, “Recess!” I didn’t understand why everyone thought that was so funny. It was perfectly logical in my mind!

I would work as fast as I could to get my work done in hopes that I might be the first in line for recess. I would run outside feeling the sun on my back and the wind in my hair. I was free! It was a time to play and be creative. Whether it was the hopscotch, tag, or monkey bars, I could be active, spending some of that pent up energy. That is, until the whistle blew to go back inside. Next came the rush to line up at the water fountain and then go back to our classroom to get back to work. I could hit the books with renewed enthusiasm. Sitting still was much easier after recess.

In the past twenty years, children have lost an average of 8 hours of recess a week. Danimals Rally for Recessis a national initiative designed to create healthy competition, pitting school against school. Go to Danimals Rally for Recess for a chance to win $20,000 for your Elementary school playground. Plus each day Danimals is giving recess-related prizes to keep kids healthy and active. Share your Recess memories below and go to Rally for Recess for more information on how your school can win!

Here is my crew enjoying Danimals Coolision Strawberry AND Banana yogurt in the great outdoors. They said, “This is the best yogurt ever!”

What did you love most about recess?

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Danimals. The opinions and text are all mine. Contest Rules.
