Currently, there is a program being offered in schools to promote exercise to our kids as a way to get and stay healthy, without it being a chore. This is a great reference for other schools nationwide to get kids motivated and on track with their health!The program I mentioned above is focusing on tackling obesity through exercise and has school children earning prizes like medals and certificates of accomplishment. The kids can track their progress through their own personal web pages; it really involves them in a hands on way.
I think that kids need to focus more on fitting in exercise. Although a healthy diet is recommended, exercise is often put on the back burner and I think that if we can get the kids to participate in a program like this, or something similar, it will help them tremendously.
