Stay active this holiday season
As the temperature outside
continues to grow colder, it is
easy to simply want to cuddle up
on the couch with a warm cup of
hot cocoa, snacks,
and your favorite hol-
iday movie. However,
with the rising obe-
sity levels, especially
among children, stay-
ing active before, dur-
ing, and after the
holidays is an impor-
tant part of being
healthy.
A key way to help
your children be-
come healthy adults
is to encourage an ac-
tive lifestyle. Children in the
United States today are less fit
than they were a generation ago,
and physical inactivity has be-
come a serious problem. Ameri-
cans are increasingly
overweight, with the number of
obese adults and overweight
children doubling between the
late 1970s and the early 2000s.
Children and adults need time
to improve their health through
physical activity. A pattern of
inactivity, also known as seden-
tary lifestyle, begins early in life,
making the promotion of physi-
cal activity among children im-
perative. Research indicates that
regular physical activity has sig-
nificant health benefits. Even
modest increases in activity lev-
els can have health-enhancing ef-
fects, including a reduction in
chronic disease risk such as hy-
pertension, type 2 diabetes, car-
diovascular disease, and obesity
So, what can par-
ents do to help in-
crease the entire
family’s fitness
level? It is not as dif-
ficult as it may seem.
First and foremost,
parents can be good
role models. If chil-
dren do not see the
adults in their lives
taking interest in
hobbies and partici-
pating in activities
that promote contin-
uous movement for 30 to 60 min-
utes a day, they are less likely to
adopt active lifestyles.
Decreasing “screen time” for
families during the holidays is
another way parents can in-
crease the family fitness level.
According to the American
Academy of Pediatrics, the aver-
age child watches about 3 hours
of television a day. And the av-
erage child spends five hours
daily on all media combined, ac-
cording to the Kaiser Family
Foundation. Choosing to turn
off the television or computer
and taking an outdoor family
walk to see neighborhood holi-
day decorations or just dancing
around in the family room to fa-
vorite music are two ways to
keep the family moving.
Take the opportunity to estab-
lish good viewing habits, and en-
sure that children have no more
than two hours of TV time daily.
Parents should also encour-
age their children to do a variety
of activities. For children, exer-
cise means playing and being
physically active. Children exer-
cise in gym class, walking, or
playing fetch with the dog, or
even playing tag in and outdoors.
According to the 2005 Dietary
Guidelines from the U.S. Depart-
ment of Agriculture and the De-
partment of Health and Human
Services, All children 2 years
and older should get 60 minutes
of moderate to vigorous exercise
on most, and preferably all, days
of the week, with adolescents
and adults getting at least 30
minutes.
To keep kids away from the
TV and off the couch, encourage
games to get kids moving, and
set a positive example by joining
in. Being active is a crucial ele-
ment of health for all ages. So
this year, resolve to take small
steps to help your family make
healthy behavior changes that
will keep your family moving to-
ward better health.
