Ring in the New Year with a Bounce!

Posted on Dec 22, 2016

With the new year just days away, now is the time for your family to start thinking about making some healthy lifestyle changes, such as pledging to move more in 2017. Being more active will help you and your children build stronger hearts, lungs and bones. In addition, being more active can help your kids do better in school. Studies suggest that kids that are more active sleep better, stay more focused during school and ultimately have better grades.

Are you ready to take the pledge to be more active in 2017? If so, here are some great ideas for active play in Orlando to get you started.

• Sign Up for a Sport - Sports help to build stamina and coordination, not to mention teamwork. There are lots of sports for your kids to choose from, such as baseball, soccer, swimming, karate, and more.
• Go for a Hike - A great way for the entire family to get more active is to plan regular hikes throughout the year. Get out and explore nature at a park and recreation center in your neighborhood.
• Spend the Day at Monkey Joe’s - Monkey Joe’s in Orlando is a great place for your kids to have fun and get active at the same time. The kids will have such a good time jumping, bouncing, and sliding on the Monkey Joe’s inflatables that they won’t even think about is as exercise.
• Take a Family Bike Ride - Grab the bikes, put on the helmets, and start pedaling with your family on a bike ride around your community. This is a great way to get the heart pumping and the blood flowing and to keep your family active.

No matter which active play in Orlando ideas your family chooses to do, the most important thing is that you just keep moving. For active fun in Orlando, stop by Monkey Joe's.
