Computer Games
Teachers can give students opportunities to use a computer to choose a kid-friendly recipe, game, or fitness video that they can share with dad (and mom).  They can e-mail the link to dad, print out the resource, or write down the URL.  Teachers can also encourage kids to take a picture of themselves cooking with dad, exercising with dad, or playing an online health/fitness game with dad which can then be displayed on a classroom board.
