I used to be just like you wondering what I could do to get my child motivated into something that would give him some exercise without it being like work.
It took a lot of talking and coaxing but finally we came to an agreement of something that would suit him.
Season started up it was soccer time.
It was the best thing I ever did was to introduce him to the sport.
Playing house league then travel really inspired him to get in motion.
He couldn't wait to get out in the fields.
Of course being a busy year we needed some rest so we took a season off but it doesn't end there.
Someone came up with a fantastic idea for the fall and winter months.
Do you have a child that likes to stay indoors during the cold season and not getting out to get proper exercise?Well this may be a solution for you.
In my town we have an indoor soccer league going.
A no cost sport that gives the kids something to do over the colder season giving them the satisfaction of not being out in the cold and you as a parent relief that they're not just sitting around.
It's a game that is played all in fun, the kids seem to really enjoy it.
The age groups start at seven years old all the way up to thirteen.
Each level has four teams so as they can play against each other in the same age levels.
