English term or phrase: Walk’N’Roll to School
Pido ayuda con esta frase, especialmente con la palabra "roll". Todo lo que se me ocurre tiene que ver con "rodar", "ir en ruedas", etc. pero esto también podría incluir ir en auto o bus, vehículos que no están considerados. Tampoco puedo poner solamente "caminar e ir en bicicleta", pues asimismo incluyen patinetas, patines, sillas de ruedas, etc. ¡Gracias por la ayuda!

Join us for Walk and Roll to School Day

An annual event held around the world to
promote safe walking and bicycling to school!

Because when kids walk and roll (on bicycles,
skates, scooters, wheelchairs and skateboards)
to school:

- They get exercise every day!
- They get to spend time with their friends and come to school energized and ready to learn!
- The streets are safer and the air is cleaner because there are less cars on the streets!
- Parents save money on gas!

Reference: No te preocupes tanto

Reference information:
En inglés "roll" también podría ser interpretado como "en auto o bus". Pero justamente al describir que se trata de vehículos impulsados por la fuerza humana, esa idea se descarta automáticamente, en cualquier idioma.

Saludos.
