Hi Tom,

I suppose making activity fun is really the challenge, what works for one family, may not work for another.

Did you see the new bikes that attach up to a computer game which is viewed on the TV screen? I think they’re by Fisher Price, kids have to cycle to gain points and play the game etc.

It’s kind of like how we are more likely to eat healthy food when it tastes good. These are good ideas, and they can go a long way in helping children stay active and increase the likelihood that they will remain so in the future.
