Spending hours on a treadmill or going to the gym 5 days a week shouldn’t be on your kid’s list of New Year’s resolutions. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t help instill some good habits when it comes to their physical development.
‘Parents play a critical role in shaping their kids’ physical habits later in life,’ said Randy McCoy, curriculum director for The Little Gym International, a company whose gymnastics-based classes help kids between 4 months and 12 years develop motor skills and self-confidence.
The Little Gyms are located in more than 200 communities across the US. See the tips for keeping kids active and confident in 2007.
