2.) turn off the TV Set a rule that no one can spend longer than 2 hours per day playing video games, watching TV, and using the computer (except for school work). Instead of a TV show, play an active family game, dance to favorite music, or go for a walk

3.) plan ahead and track your progress Write your activity plans on a family calendar. Let the kids help in planning the activities. Allow them to check it off after completing each activity

6.) start small Begin by introducing one new family activity and add more when you feel everyone is ready. Take the dog for a longer walk, play another ball game, or go to an additional exercise class.

7.) treat the family with fun physical activity When it is time to celebrate as a family, do some thing active as a reward. Plan a trip to the zoo, park, or lake to treat the family.

8.) use what is available Plan activities that require little or no equipment or facilities. Examples include walking, jogging, jumping rope, playing tag, and dancing. Find out what programs your community recreation center offers for free or minimal charge.
