The Kids Heart Challenge replaces Jump Rope for the Heart but the focus is the same: teaching students about the workings of the heart, the importance of eating healthy and exercising for good heart health, and making a difference in the lives of kids with special hearts by raising funds for the American Heart Association (AHA).

The program involves learning new physical skills, watching related videos, collecting Heart Hero characters, and more.
