:. When baby is 6-10 months of age, walk with baby in stroller or in a baby carrier.

:. When baby can walk, begin exploring your garden, go for short walks in front of your home, and delight in trips to the park.

:. Encourage your preschooler to play, jump, throw, skip, and run.

:. Walk as a family to and from school.

:. Walk around the block after dinner.

:. Play catch, shoot the basketball, and kick the soccer ball for 10 minutes anytime!
