Today provides a great opportunity for all of us to get out and be active. Because it is Halloween, your children probably have their minds set to get out and collect goodies from everyone within a 2 mile radius of your house. Instead of letting them run around with the other hooligans in the neighborhood, you can join them while traveling from house to house. Not only will you be getting physical activity, but you will be spending quality time with family and keeping them out of trouble. If you are curious about the distance you traveled while collecting sacks full of Oh'Henry!s, visit the
Google Maps Pedometer website and track your path.
When you get back home examine their haul of candy and discuss the merits of not eating it all at once. Below is a list of potential treats you may come across accompanied by some nutrition information.
So put on an extra jacket, leave the car in the garage and take your children to see what the neighbors have to offer this year.
