Happy International Walk to School Month!
Hey readers!
October is International Walk to School Month. During this month-long celebration, kids and adults walk to school together to create communities that are safe places to walk.

I can think of so many good reasons to walk to school! Here are a few.
1. It’s great exercise.
2. Walking doesn’t create pollution.
3. You get to see friendly faces along the way! My favourite thing about walking to school was waving to the crossing guard every morning.
