Health, Fitness & Wellness

Welcome to Wellness Around the World, a new video series from an amazing team of medical students at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. In this first video you'll meet Atlas, your guide who will be taking you on journeys around the world to learn about how kids eat, play, and stay healthy!  In future videos, you'll visit far-flung places like Egypt and India with Atlas, but in this intro video you'll be learning some new words.

Do you remember Jordan Reeves, the girl who has the prosthetic arm that sends glitter shooting into the air?  We met her a few months ago in the How to Be a Super Friend video called Limb Differences.  (If you missed that one or want to see it again, click here to view it.)

Grown-ups, don’t walk away!  Please scroll down to join librarian Suzanne for our opening song, and then we'll have a brief visit from Allison Reinking of Central Jersey Family Health Consortium.  (And then we'll get right back to stories!)

Did you ever think about the fact that transportation can be a challenge for some people who have disabilities?  Maybe you know someone who uses hand controls when they drive a car or have a friend who uses a wheelchair lift when they ride a bus.

In this episode of How to Be a Super Friend, our good friend Megan, a medical student at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, talks all about transportation.  Join her to learn about how people get where they need to go!
