Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital is dedicated to improving the health and lives of children and families. Use “Healthy Counts,” nine recommended health tips from our health optimization services team, encouraged by all health educators at Corewell Health, to create a health routine you and your kids can count on:

  • Eight hours of sleep or more each night
  • Seven breakfasts a week
  • Six home-cooked meals a week
  • Five servings of fruits and vegetables a day
  • Four positive self-messages a day
  • Three servings of low-fat dairy a day
  • Two hours maximum screen time a day
  • One hour or more of physical activity a day
  • Zero sugary drinks a day
