The University of New Hampshire (UNH) community was invited to enter the 6th Annual UNH Peeps Show by creating a diorama that depicts how they stay healthy at UNH.

2. WHY A PEEPS
SHOW
UNH Health Services brings
the UNH Peeps Show to the
UNH community in an effort to

awareness about the variety of
ways one can be healthy and
well at UNH.
Health is much more than
eating well and exercising, and
each year the dioramas
created for the UNH Peeps
Show illustrate that very point.

8. Gone Fishing: Be Back at Peep Thirty
ABOUT THE ENTRY
Our Wildcat Peeps are at Mendums
Pond exploring the area, fishing,
canoeing, and overall experiencing
the therapeutic benefits of being
outdoors. These peeps are taking
some down time and focusing on their
health by exercising with water sports
and decreasing their anxiety levels by
just being outdoors.
WHY PARTICIPATE IN THE PEEPS
SHOW
We participated because we like to
support other offices at UNH with
events that they are doing and this is a
great way to educate students on
easy and fun ways to stay healthy.

Animals
ABOUT THE ENTRY
Peeping at animals is a demonstration of how
interacting with animals can relieve stress,
promote socialization, and encourage physical
activity. From visiting the UNH horse barn and
doing some therapeutic riding, spending time with
Hamilton the therapy dog, or even watching those
cute and fluffy UNH squirrels scamper along
Thompson Hall lawn, students and faculty alike
can reap the benefits of spending time with
animals.

the topics discussed in OT 610.
