Welcome FlowerChild

Yesterday I used the Wii balance board again after quite some weeks of being in-active. During the summer the whole family used the board intensively and everybody, young and old, enjoyed competing with family members to be the best at hoolahoop or skiing. Today, when I read once more figures on obesity among children (1 in 7 children is obese!!), I had a vision of availability of sports facilities for all children. Obesity has a profound effect on a child’s life. It not only increases the child’s risk of numerous health problems, and it also can create emotional and social problems. Dieting has a negative effect on kids, but changing their exercising habits works best. In our world where more and more services are free of charge thanks to advertising, it should be possible to give away more Wii’s and change a lot of kids’ lives.
