International Walk to School Month is observed every October, encouraging students, families, and communities to make walking or wheeling to school a regular habit. The initiative promotes the benefits of walking, such as increased energy, improved focus, and reduced congestion around schools, leading to cleaner air. Activities to celebrate include organizing group walks, scavenger hunts, and walk parades, which foster community spirit and excitement. Participants can earn rewards like stickers or healthy snacks for their efforts. The movement began in Hertfordshire, England, and has since expanded globally, becoming a tradition that emphasizes healthier routines and outdoor time for children.
