Me and my son like to do simple work outs together but make it more fun with animal noises, sounds silly but that kid can really get into it. Makes it more fun with basic pushups or sit ups, no dull moments. He can’t say excersise he says oopersize. So oopersize is fun he tells everyone to join in.
We love to take the kids on walks, and have dance parties in the kitchen at night. The kids also love to lift weights with my husband and I so we bought them little 1 pound weights to use. The call it “mousercizing” For those that have seen Mickey Mouse Clubhouse can relate 🙂
I try to make anything a workout, anything from playing tag or chase in house to jumping at the bubbles outside. But lately while we have been trapped in the house from dreadfully cold winter my favorite is dancing to music. I will hold my 10mth old and get him involved. I always say he is the easiest 20lb weight to use. It can be educational too, ex. Head shoulders knees and toes my 2yr olds fav. Key for us is have fun!
Heidi, we like to have dance parties in our living room!
I like to blow bubbles for my 2 and 4 year old.
They try to pop them with different body parts ( finger, toe, elbow,
Foot, tongue). Then they get crazy and run back and
fourth through them! Great energy buster!
Yoga with kids is a blast, but I’m also up for a good day of play on the playground – monkey bars and climbing the slide stairs is a workout!
Why with two boys, we wrestle of course!
My 3 teen girls all run WITH me and my 9 year old son started last summer going for a “jog”. We are all very active, hiking, surfing, beach dwellers who play Volleyball. Each of us has a sport or two we are passionate about, from basketball to swimming, the 6 of us live for athletics!!
My girls lie on the floor on their backs and I give them “push up kisses”
I lie on top of my girls in the plank position, and every time you go down for the push up, give your baby a kiss. This way you get the workout in and they get the mommy love and kisses!
Our kids are like yours, they want to do whatever we are doing. They do Bootcamp with us at our rec center and they do running club on Friday afternoons. Our favorite activity is probably running 5Ks together. Everyone trying for their PR gets everyone excited.
