[Lpobc] Help your child get active with free gifts!

[Eric Guillory]

Dear parents of children who are blind/visually impaired,

Would you like to help your child get more active and experience the health benefits of exercise?

Would you like to receive a FREE APH Walk-Run for Fitness Kit<https://shop.aph.org/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_Walk-Run%20for%20Fitness%20Kit_1-07520-00P_10001_11051>* (a $160 value) AND a gift card for participating in a study about fitness for children who are blind/visually impaired?

If you answered yes to these questions, WE WANT YOU!

We need parents of children who are blind/visually impaired (ages 3-21) who are willing to:

  1.  Record their child doing a short fitness demonstration (smart phone or tablet recordings are fine) of skills like skipping and rolling a ball.
  2.  Help their children perform simple exercises that are fun and geared towards family inclusion for at least 30 minutes a week over a 6-week period.  (Note: The APH Walk-Run for Fitness Kit and a guidebook showing you exactly what to do will be mailed at no cost to you.)
  3.  Record their child doing a short fitness demonstration again after 6 weeks.
If you complete the study, you get to keep the APH Walk-Run for Fitness Kit, and you will also receive a gift card!  And even more importantly, you will have learned some ways to make fitness a part of your child’s life!

If you are interested in participating or if you'd like more information, please contact Dr. Ali Brian at brianali at mailbox.sc.edu<mailto:brianali at mailbox.sc.edu> or Dr. Laura Bostick at lbostick at latech.edu<mailto:lbostick at latech.edu>.

Please forward this note to anyone who might be interested.


Thanks!
