Teach Your Kids To Eat Right

Published by lroeder under Eating Habits Edit This

Believe it or not, if you fill your house with fruits and veggies, and get rid of the chips and candy, your kids will be just as happy, but a lot healthier.  Fruit has long been known as nature’s candy. If you have a variety of fruit in your house your kids won’t get bored with it.

Fruit can be used in many recipes. Cut it up and make a fruit salad. Add shortbread and whipped cream for a sweet treat. There are so many things you can do with fruit that your kids will soon be asking you to make something for them with fruit as the main ingredient instead of chocolate.

Workout With Your Kids

Published by lroeder under Exercise Edit This

Kids on average are heavier than they were when I was a kid. When I go to my oldest son’s high school I can see this for myself. The girls have wider hips and more pinch an inch area around their middle than any of my friends had in high school. There are very few “thin” girls there, not the way “thin” girls were years ago anyway.

Why not help your kids by starting them on an exercise routine now. As long as your kids can stand up, they can exercise. Something as simple at turning on some music and dancing with your child will help them learn the joys of moving their body and will keep them in shape.

Maybe you can even take an exercise class with your son or daughter. Many karate schools have family workout classes so you and your kids can learn karate together. Many gyms will allow kids as young as 12 into their workouts and exercise classes.

Take bike rides with your kids or go on walks or hikes. Maybe you can plan a nature hike and look for different kinds of plants or animals. Go for a picnic at the top of a high hill or small mountain. Make it fun so they learn to keep with it.
