I Am Moving, I Am Learning (IMIL) is a proactive approach designed to complement school readiness efforts while addressing childhood obesity. The initiative was first launched by the Federal Office of Head Start in 2004. The unique approach encourages the implementation of customized strategies for increasing the amount and quality of physical activity, as well as promoting healthy food choices every day. The goals of IMIL are to: increase moderate to vigorous physical activity every day, improve the quality of movement activities intentionally planned and facilitated by adults, and promote healthy food choices every day.
