We’ve found many fun ways for kids to get exercise. It’s not always easy to get kids off the couch and away from the TV, computer, and video games. Sometimes it’s a simple matter of offering them a new way to get moving. From skateboards and scooters to bicycles and pogo sticks, kids love the opportunity to try something new. Whether it’s a ride to a friend’s house or just around the block, it’s a terrific feeling. Being active can also take place in a backyard, pool, or driveway. You don’t have to be headed somewhere. Jump rope, play hopscotch, and discover nature. It’s not the destination, it’s the journey!
