Topical Teaching

I found a useful article that gives ten rules for keeping your kid active.  The ten rules are as follows:

Rule #1: Don’t Rely on Organized Sports

Rule #2: Keep Play Fun

Rule #3: Turn off the TV…

Rule #4: …Unless You’re Playing Wii

Rule #5: Never Reward Kids with Food

Rule #6: Instruct by Showing, Not Telling

Rule #7: Know When to Praise

Rule #8: Make a Play Date with Friends

Rule #9: But Don’t Compare Your Kids with Others

Rule #10: Give Them Your Blessing

For an explanation of what each rule means, click on the link at the top of the post.
