Sanford Fit was selected as a winner in the 23rd annual Digital Health Awards program. This competition — held each spring and fall — recognizes the world’s best digital health resources.
The video “Recognizing Feelings and Emotions” received a Gold Award for Digital Health Media/Publications: Video, and the “fitBoost Activity for Kids” received a Bronze Award for Web-based Digital Health: Interactive Content/Rich Media.
In the animated video, “Recognizing Feelings and Emotions,” a diverse group of children discovers that it is normal to experience a wide range of feelings and emotions throughout the day, and that these emotions can influence the choices they make. Through engaging storytelling, the children demonstrate healthy coping strategies kids can put into practice when in need.
The “fitBoost Activity for Kids” is an interactive game that provides a quick, fun three- to five-minute workout at the push of a button. Three random activities combine for a warmup, movement and cooldown, using an optional timer.
