In past generations children spent more time outdoors playing when the weather was good. In fact, in the past, children even spent time outdoors when the weather was not the greatest. It was these kids that spent hours outside playing games, exploring and having fun for as long as the sun stayed out. These kids only came inside for bad weather, meal time and sleep.Unfortunately, as time went by kids have found other activities to keep them occupied in bad and good weather. With distractions from the computer, video games, television, smartphones and a number of other new technology, kids are not getting outside to play and exercise nearly as much as kids of the past. This has created a big problem with obesity in children and not being physically fit. These are elements which could lead to health problems later in life if not corrected.So, what’s a parent to do?
