Make physical activity something for the whole family!
- Talk as a family about physical activity as a fun lifelong way to take care of your body. Try not to talk about exercise as a chore. Remember-your kiddos take their cues from you!
- Celebrate accomplishments with fun activities instead of food or extra TV time- think roller skating, rock climbing, trips to a favorite playground
- Let your children choose the activity. Organized sports are great, but there are so many activities children can do to be active that are not competitive- plus you can do it with them! Follow their lead!
