Concerns of the increase in child obesity means parents are painstakingly aware that their children need healthier, active lifestyles. Similarly, studies by educational physiologists suggest that children become more skilful if they are physically fit.Tumble Tots was launched in 1979 with a focus on healthy living for kids.
Almost 30 years later, it’s a trusted and recognised leading brand in children’s physical play with 60,000 members.Tumble Tots is committed to developing children’s physical skills and boosting their self-confidence, independence and self- discipline by using specially developed brightly coloured wooden and foam equipment.
Catering for 5 different age groups ranging from 6 months to 7yrs, members attend a 40/50minute weekly session, Monday to Saturday, where they participate in a variety of activities to develop their physical and social skills, while songs and rhymes help their language development. The tasks differ according to their age group and stage of development, allowing children to develop at their own pace.
Tumble Tots has and will continue to encourage parents and children to lead a healthy lifestyle. By nurturing children’s enjoyment of physical activity from a young age Tumble Tots will continue to maintain its commitment to building a healthier future.

15Parks, Eating Out, Family Food
HEALTHY FOOD ON YOUR DOORSTEP
Sign up for a Riverford organic vegetable box and find that feeding your family a healthy diet of fresh organic produce is both easier and more affordable than you might think. In fact, a recent price comparison for Riverford showed customers of 3 major supermarkets are paying on average 22% more for their organic vegetables and with free delivery you don’t even need to take the car out. From September the award winning boxes, filled with freshly picked, great tasting organic fruit and vegetables will come from Stockley Farm in Cheshire as it becomes the latest Riverford home farm, growing and packing vegetables for customers in the North West.
Riverford grows more than 100 varieties of fruit and vegetables, all selected for their flavour and seasonality, so the boxes are interesting and varied all year round. There are a wide range of boxes to choose from, starting from just £8.35, and you can add any extra organic produce you fancy – fruit, milk, juice, meatboxes and more. You can even make up your own box, choosing seasonal produce to suit your own taste. Delivery is free and you can order weekly, fortnightly or as a one-off and you don’t even need to be at home to accept it.
For more information, visit www.riverfordstockley.co.uk , call 0845 367 1156 or Dave Hanlon 0161 292 5665.
