INCREASE KIDS' ACTIVITY THE FUN WAY!

Try increasing your child's physical activity through fun!  Buy them a pedometer and stopwatch (you can get both for under $10).  Kids love to time themselves and measure just about anything.  They can see how many steps it takes to walk around the house, down the block, across the yard, etc.  They can see how many steps they can take in 3 minutes.  They can see how many jumping jacks, rope jumps, sit ups, etc. they can do in a minute.  Bonus:  They can see how fast they can clean up their mess or their room!  They will be having fun while exercising at the same time: it's a win-win!
