Sure! Here are four different ways you can encourage your child to be more active through play:

[KeiraKnapp]

. **Make it Fun**: Turn exercise into a game! Set up an obstacle course in your backyard or living room using pillows, chairs, and toys. You can even time them to see how fast they can complete it. Kids love a little competition!

. **Get Outside Together**: Plan family outings that involve physical activities, like hiking, biking, or playing at the park. Show them that being active is fun by joining in on the games, like playing tag or flying kites together.

. **Limit Screen Time**: Set some boundaries on screen time and encourage your child to play outside instead. You can suggest activities like riding bikes, playing catch, or even just running around. The less time they spend in front of a screen, the more time they’ll have to be active!
