Hi fives all around, Internet! Our pals at Zis! Boom! Bah! won a big award from Apps for Healthy Kids! Zis! Boom!

Apps for Healthy Kids is part of Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move! campaign and is a competition where software developers, game designers, students, and computer whizzes of all types can win prizes for using computers to help kids lead healthier lives. It’s a good idea these days when we use computers in just about every part of our lives. Apps for Healthy Kids is a great way to start making kids’ health an important goal for software developers and designers. There’s so much potential in computers as a way to teach kids, and programs like Apps for Healthy Kids can help us realize it.
