Wii Fit
I have been on the look out for the Wii fit board. Finally I found one and picked it up. We have all enjoyed it. I thought, this is great, the kids aren't just sitting on the couch. However, now I have a few misgivings about it. First, my darling little Emilia, who has just started her growth spurt, was way at the top of healthy weight range. She cried for an entire day about almost being overweight. Then, Elliot, asked me if I were in the healthy range, then proceeded to talk about how he needs to eat more at every meal because he is in the underweight range. I have tried to tell them that the program is probably written mostly for adults and the important thing is eating right and moving around. They give the the "whatever" look. What if this fun little toy turns my now healthy children into obsessive, worried unhealthy kids? I can only hope that the newness and excitement of Wii Fit will wear away like DDR and Rockband.
