Encouraging Your Kids to Exercise Encouraging your kids to
exercise can be a challenge when you have to compete with
television, video games and the comfort of your own home. Having
kids that are out of shape is a common concern for parents these
days and it is important to get these concerns under control
before long-term health risks become a concern. The best way to
get kids moving is to make exercising seem like fun instead of a
chore, for example, install a basketball hoop in the driveway.
Finding Ways to Exercise Your kids are not going to take your
efforts to get them healthy seriously unless you are on-board
too. Find ways to exercise that get the whole family involved so
your children do not feel like they are being punished when you
send them to exercise. This can be something as simple as
heading to the park and playing catch to taking up a hobby such
as bike riding or sports to get everyone in the family getting
healthier. If you are dealing with teenagers they probably do
not want to do anything
