Summer is awesome for kids and parents because it is easy for kids to get ample exercise while they are outside running and biking and playing and that makes for happy and tired kids at bedtime.
However, now that the school year is underway and the nights are getting cooler and its dark earlier it isn’t as easy for kids to get the recommended 60 minutes of motion each day, and that leads to bedtime issues, energy issues and a general unhealthy lifestyle.
I recently had the chance to host a Fit Made Fun party complements of Leap Band and Clif Bars and I got to show my kids and their friends just how much fun being active can be!
We were really excited to try out the new LeapBand’s, which I got to check out earlier this summer at Blogger Bash. LeapBand makes physical activity fun for kids, promotes an active lifestyle and healthy habits by encouraging your kids to care for their virtual pet.. The LeapBand tracks your child’s movement and suggests fun activities and challenges encouraging even more physical activity. Then the more they move the better it gets because they accumulate points that then allow them to unlock virtual rewards for their pets and get to new, even more exciting levels!
We had a great time running and jumping and rolling.
And when we got tired we just fueled up with water and Chocolate Chip, Chocolate Mint and Peanut Butter Chocolate CLIF Bars Protein.
Each bar has 5g of complete protein, and is a great source of calcium, vitamin d, iron and zinc so you can feel good about giving them to your kids. Plus they taste GREAT!
I received free product in order to host the LeapFrog and CLIF kid sponsored MommyParty. As always my opinions are 100% my own.
