This holiday vacation keep your kids entertained with fun
and healthy activities. Instead of them sitting on the couch all day get them
up and active. The Cambridge News & The Independent has some great tips to
keep your kids focused on health while still having fun.
Indulge in winter sports. Now is the only time of year to go
outdoor ice-skating. You could even take a day trip to a local mountain and
teach your kids how to snowboard or ski. Mountains even offer snow tubing for
guaranteed fun.
Turn exercising into a family fun event. Turn on some music
and dance. It’s a great way to burn calories and gets the whole family
involved.
Visit a museum. Spend some fun and educational time at a
local museum. You’re child will be up and walking throughout the day.
Be a role model. If you and the rest of the family are
eating healthy then your child will too. Make experimenting with food fun and substitute
desserts for more healthy alternatives. It is important not to force your kids
to eat healthy. The more you push a food on them the less they will like it.
Instead give them a variety of healthy options so they could choose which one
they prefer.
Cooking healthy with your child is a great activity. It gives
you more time together as well as teaches them important skills. The younger
children can help measure ingredients while the older children can have more
freedom cooking on their own.
