In the modern world it is getting
easier and easier for people to live sedentary lives. Most people will own
their own form of transport, but even if they don’t transport links in towns
and cities are so good that most people don’t have to walk more of a metre
outside their front door to be transported to wherever they want to go.
Not only this but most people
have desk jobs in offices or work from home, meaning getting daily exercise is
becoming a thing of the past. one of the best ways to beat obesity and
sedentary lifestyles early on is to foster a passion for exercise and sport at
an early age, and the toy industry is doing their part to bring in a series of
great sports related toys which will excite children and get them to exercise
without even realising it.
One of the best ways to get a
child interested in exercise is to make it fun and thrilling, and bikes and
scooters do this. You can now buy scooters and bikes for children as young as
18 months, which are completely safe to use and easy to ride, and give children
that early sensation of the rush you can get from exercise, in a fun enough way
that it just feels like an adventure. Bikes are great because they give
children the kind of freedom they have never experienced before. they get to
decide where to go and what to do, as well as how fast and how far they go.
Taking your kids to the park with their bikes can be a fantastic way to get
them to fall in love with bike riding, and it will give them more than enough
daily exercise.
