Spike
Monthly Program
With our popular Spike monthly program, students receive a note from Spike with a special premium each month during the school year. In his note, Spike shares important nutritional facts to help students to Eat Right! and to keep up with their busy school days. Past themes include Spike's USA Tour, School Rules!, Spike's All-Stars, and Spike Explores Careers — all blending a healthy living message with an educational twist that teachers can leverage in the classroom.
This year, our theme is Spike Outdoors. Spike will encourage physical activity and healthy eating by highlighting a different outdoor activity each month. Students will receive a note from Spike providing nutritional facts and advice on making healthy selections at mealtime. In addition to the note, students will also receive a fun and useful premium.
For example, in October Spike encouraged students to get active by trying skateboarding. He also reminded them play it safe when skateboarding by wearing a helmet and knee and elbow pads. The note let students know how they can use the MyPyramid to help them make healthy meal choices and asks a trivia question around types of food to eat for an energy boost. Students received an eraser featuring Spike on a skateboard — a handy tool for the classroom.
