http://Twitter.com/ClevverTV - Follow Us! http://Facebook.com/ClevverTV - Become a Fan! http://bethebeat.heart.org/ February is national heart health month, and weve got an important story with info you need to know.  Stay tuned.   Hi everyone.  Welcome back to Clevver TV, Im Dana Ward talking about the Be the Beat initiative. Not only do you get to learn how-to perform CPR, potentially life saving knowledge by going to the official site made for teens, but you can also create an avatar in The World of Hearts to play video games and take quizzes, all while learning about the heart and CPR.  Plus, an added feature is that you can listen to music and all of the songs available have 100 beats per minute which is the correct rate for chest compressions during CPR or Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation.  Very interesting.   Okay, guys so maybe youre thinking that youd rather play your favorite video game, but do me a favor and take a minute to learn a skill that might help save the life of someone you know.  This is good knowledge to have tucked away in your brain for when you might need it, and hello, the American Heart Association is making it entertaining for you!  Plus, you can even get free printable stickers, t-shirt decals, stationary and downloadable widgets and wallpapers.    Check out all the basics and specifics by going to BeTheBeat.heart.org.  Remember to comment about what you learned and subscribe to our YouTube page, Clevver TV.  Im your host Dana Ward thanks for watching!
