“I want to thank Disney for all that they’ve done to support ‘Let’s Move’ and to make sure our kids are eating right and being active,” Obama told the audience at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex.

After talking with the audience, the First Lady welcomed the children to visit five “Magic of Healthy Living” activity stations along with Disney Channel Stars Debby Ryan (“Jessie”), Roshon Fegan (“Shake It Up”), and Disney XD stars Doc Shaw and Kelsey Chow (“Pair of Kings”) and Olivia Holt (“Kickin’ It”), according to Disney and other published reports. Professional athletes helped children with the physical fitness skills.
