Making Healthy Choices

Dairy Queen has both food and treat options to fit your healthy lifestyle. Here are some tips about how to treat yourself while making balanced choices.

  1. Order Dairy Queen reduced-fat ice cream or a Dairy Queen fudge or vanilla orange bar if you’re looking for a lower calorie option.
  2. Choose a side salad instead of French fries or onion rings when ordering a combo meal. Most locations also offer fat-free salad dressing options.
  3. Choose grilled chicken over fried chicken.

Tips For Raising Active Kids

  • Set a good example!
  • Limit the amount of time kids spend in front of the TV or computer and set aside more time for physical activities.
  • Plan family fun time and vacations that center around fun outdoor activities like swimming, skiing, or hiking.
  • Figure out which activities your kids enjoy, then find out about lessons and clubs.
  • When your children are bored, suggest something that gets them moving, like playing catch or building a snowman in the yard.
  • Make sure to keep in mind their levels of strength, coordination and maturity.
  • Focus on the fun aspects of exercise, instead of competition.
