Powerful girls have powerful bones

Visit Carla on the National Bone Health Campaign website!

This bright website is dedicated to teaching girls how to develop strong and healthy bones. The campaign is called Powerful bones. Powerful girls. (Hosted on the CDC website.)

There's all sorts of information for girls about how to create strong bones. Girls can click around games, quizzes, print a colorful calendar, and link to other related sites, and well as do many other things. Some of it seems to be aimed at girls in their early teens, but the computer savvy 9-10 year old will enjoy browsing and doing things on this incredibly interactive site. There is a lot to do, and much to be learned! Check out the dictionary.

National Bone Health Campaign is devoted to having people share the message. There is information on how to link to the site, as well as graphics and descriptions to use.
