We Like to Move it Move it

The new Madagascar movie is opening up this weekend and I’m sure we’ll be heading to it. The girls have been counting down since we saw a preview for it in the theater several months ago.In conjunction with the launch, McDonald’s has “Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa” Happy Meals and related toys. Starting November 7th and continuing through November 19th, HappyMeal.com will have online and offline examples of activities to “One Minute to Move it” including a video from Olympian Shawn Johnson. There will also be codes available on healthy alternatives such as apples instead of fries, in their Happy Meal.

I asked my kids what their favorite way to spend their energy exercising and Miss M said “Running.”  Miss K claims that dancing is her favorite.  They love spending their minutes doing a lot of physical activities, but those are their top choices.  Mine – I love hitting the gym at least four times a week!

Thanks to Mom Salon for helping spread the word on this great healthy learning experience for kids!
