Parenting out of fear is never a good plan, and "keeping the kids safe inside" fails to take into account internet dangers in addition to the health concerns of inactivity. As much as I disliked P.E. and stressed out as a kid over the "President's Challenge" (Do you remember this?) I have to admit, gulp, it was good for me. Hope we can make a difference for our kids!

It's really sad, because most of that fear is unwarranted. Just because the streets are dangerous in Chicago doesn't mean that they are here in the Ville. <br />And while I rant, schools need to get those kiddos up and moving during the day. Maybe if we put weight on the API scores then they'd quit shortening recess and PE. <br />Okay, I feel better now after my rants. :)<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10173060981194623768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7600200775908519566.post-1358515802742687342013-02-08T15:37:34.265-06:002013-02-08T15:37:34.265-06:00I really need to limit my non-writing screen time....I really need to limit my non-writing screen time. Bad Sonia!<br /><br />Thanks for the reminders, Lisa. I saw doctor say on CBS This Morning that walking 30 minutes a day isn't only good for your weight and heart health -- it also might help stave off Alzheimers! <br />Sonia Genslerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13948726225833519583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7600200775908519566.post-87463507234426590122013-02-06T15:16:04.467-06:002013-02-06T15:16:04.467-06:00Good info - thanks.

The kids have so much fun they don't register the uphill walk as "exercise" and the adults get a blast from the past!Shel Harringtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10493140059859176864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7600200775908519566.post-15930322215540626442013-02-05T15:07:02.028-06:002013-02-05T15:07:02.028-06:00Thank you for your public service announcement. I ...Thank you for your public service announcement. I love the picture and how you both were in the 5K. That's such a good point to make. It's not only good health for your kids, but it's good practice for their parents. When I'm moving with my kids, I'm exercising. I may not have time for the gym, but I do have time to dance in the living room and run in the backyard.Brandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10117892404261245726noreply@blogger.com
