Recent data suggests that over 1/3 of today’s youth are overweight or obese. Spending quality family time doing physical activities together is one key to reduction and prevention.
Here are just a few ideas:
- Go for a bike ride
- Play at the park, on a jungle gym, or monkey bars
- Jump on a trampoline
- Go swimming
- Play a game of tag
- Kick or throw a ball
- Turn on music and dance
Be creative! Physical activity doesn’t have to be conventional.
Keep in mind that kids should get at least one hour of physical activity per day.
