Kids need exercise

Hallo again

I have just heard on the news that there was a survey done. It was found that a lot of junk food ads are played when kids are probably watching TV as well. It is no wonder that there is an alarming increase in overweight and obesity in kids.

It was found that the USA's and Germany's kids were the most overweight and the kids from Britain and Australia the least overweight. Interesting and alarming!

Bear in mind that kids do not play as much as 20 or 30 years ago. A lot of time is spent playing video games, or by watching TV.

Where does that leave us as parents. Get the kids away from the PC or TV and let them do some PT. Walk or play with them if possible.

Good luck!

Until next time.
