Stay Active and moviing
Taking everyone outside is the first step in getting off the couch and moving. Once out with children, it is hard to stay sitting. Being outside is just begging for a game of tag or bouncing each other on a trampoline. Moving your body is always going to benefit you more than watching movies on the couch. The imagination is the limit once you break away from screens and have the space to play. When you have access to pools, take the opportunity to swim every chance you get. Swimming is a complete body workout you can get while playing in the water. The kids won’t even know they are exercising.
