This topic came up in Katie's blog and so I want to ask you the same question I asked her...will this type of gaming make kids less likely to go outside and be physically active because they will think, "Hey, I already did my physical activity for the day through this game." I guess the question really does it matter where you are physically active, as long as you are?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15154999687416407805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564847199943290844.post-78142450117885794732013-09-10T18:17:39.452-07:002013-09-10T18:17:39.452-07:00Technology does make everything easier, faster, an...Technology does make everything easier, faster, and everyone tilt to the lazier side of things. Technology provides so many forms of entertainment that people don't even feel like moving. Not only do you not feel the need to move, but you don't have to. Remotes, phones, computers, etc. are portable. Have children fallen into this immovable trap? Have they learned through technology not to move? I know I grew up outside, but are children now growing up inside?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09165634781234043953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564847199943290844.post-1531694150109297262013-09-10T13:33:16.214-07:002013-09-10T13:33:16.214-07:00I completely agree with what you said about how te...I completely agree with what you said about how technology has taken over this world. I do believe that it is close to the number one reason that children are becoming so obese. <br />Do you think that if people came up with computer games that required children to participate in physical activities and get their bodies moving, that it could help with this problem? Since it is so hard to pry children away from the computer screen, I feel, that if there were ways for them to have fun playing a game that required them to "break a sweat," it could potentially make some progress in their health. Do you agree? Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05446852705319160149noreply@blogger.com
