Schools all around the country are trying to thinkoutside the box in ways to help kids stay fit and healthy. Numerousprograms are implemented every year throughout different schools. The big question is for how long are theyeffective since children are known to quickly lose interest?

The most important aspect for schools when considering aprogram is on how well it’s implemented and how well kids respond to it.
Exergame Fitness offers schools theopportunity to implement a program that will both motivate kids to be activeand engaged. How? By combining fitness with technology, kids get toplay the games they like but have to MOVE in order to play. Most likely,they don’t realize the workout they’re getting since they’re having fun. In fact, studies show that exercise isdirectly related to improve achievement and behavior as well as wellness.
