Being a mom of two boys, a 8 mo. old and a 3 yr. old, I know that it can be challening to get your workout in. But I have the solutions…make your workout a game for your child! Just yesterday I put my 8 mo. old in a baby back pack carrier, and went outside with my 3 yr. old. I told him I was going to exercise and he asked if he could workout out with me! He followed along while I “taught” him some kicks and squats. After 5 minutes he was done with that, so we walked to our neighbors down the street and climbed up and down their stairs. I challenged him to walk up the stairs 5 times, and he said, “no 10!” Children love games, so make your exercise into a game and they will join you. It’s cute, fun, and you get to do your workout and be a great role model for your child!
