Examples of Fitness For Children
We need to set an example for children with exercise and physical activities. Childhood obesity is rising at an alarming rate.
How can we encourage, direct or insist on exercise for our kids if we have not given them the example and tools they need to be physically fit?
Our children are profoundly affected by how we, as parents treat ourselves in every aspect and participating in fun activities is not only good for the heart and muscles but will improve self-esteem for everyone involved.
Some fun ways to workout with your kids are:
*Jump Rope
*Walk the Dog
*Kick around a soccer ball
*Tag football
*Swimming
*Fun runs
*Bike Ride
* Buy a kid friendly workout video and do it together
By participating in physical activities with your kids and also making a point of working out for yourself, your kids will learn the importance of staying active and will carry those lessons through their life if encouraged to do so by example.
Healthy Eating Habits for Kids – Another way kids learn to be healthy is through eating habits; if your kids refuse to eat unless they are given something fried or full of preservatives?t be alarmed. Be proactive! Start introducing new foods and cut out the high fat alternatives, this will have a huge impact on your children?s health and your own.
Have fun together when thinking up new recipes and let the kids help make homemade snacks and desserts. You would be amazed at how much better something tastes when you make it yourself. And keep in mind to include some ingredients you are sure your kids like, this will ensure they will try something new the next time.
Things like peanut butter, raisins, and yogurt for great snacks and lots of vegetables and fruit. Be creative and listen when your kids when they have an opinion about the food, these may lead to clues as to how to tweak the recipe for next time.
Keep an eye on the liquids your kids are drinking’t like to drink a lot of water and are always reaching for a soda, offer a flavored sugar free packet for a water bottle. Be careful not to offer too much juice and encourage plenty of calcium rich milk.
