Let’s Step Outside

Children should regularly engage in outdoor activity. Playing outside is great exercise and an opportunity to get ‘fresh air’. Many kids these days are overweight. This trend is due in part to poor diets and a lack of exercise. Kids used to staying indoors all the time may be loath to spend time outside.

Parents may encourage their children to play outside more often by participating in activities with them. For example ask your son/daughter to play catch with you in the front yard, or put some outdoor toys in your yard. A wood swing set or a playground slide are great ways to motivate kids to get some exercise.
