About Let's Jump!

Let's Jump! is the National Geographic Kids movement to get kids outdoors and live an active, healthy life. Take some hints from our list of active facts and keep checking back to get ideas to help explore and enjoy the world through adventures and sports.

Between 3 p.m. ET October 11, 2011, and 3 p.m. ET October 12, 2011, join NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC KIDS and First Lady Michelle Obama to break the record for the most people doing jumping jacks. All you have to do is one minute of jumping jacks!

We need more than 20,000 people to do jumping jacks to break the record. So get your friends, sports teams, afterschool groups--even your entire school--to participate!

Exercise can be fun--especially if you're breaking a Guinness World Record. Join First Lady Michelle Obama--the official Jumper in Chief--as she kicks off NGK's attempt to break the record for the Most People Doing Jumping Jacks. Kids and adults can help break the record by doing one minute of jumping jacks. So start practicing now!

Read the rules and find out how you can participate.

So get out and get active. And if you can't get outside right now, turn on your favorite music and practice your jumping jacks!
