Dec 12, 2005 -- Video games that incorporate exercise

Do you have a teenager who plays video games all the time and is putting on a little weight in the process? Well, companies are now devising and developing exercise games that combine video games with exercise. Some look like elliptical machines or Nordic machines. Others are mat-type games that require people to jump around on certain spots of the pad. It’s a great way to keep teens fit while they have fun. If you have a son or daughter who is especially sedentary, consider getting one of these devices. Some are very expensive, including “The Kilowatt” which is $500. You hook it up to the television and kids jump around while interacting with the TV. If we’re going to get kids to exercise in today’s society, we have to reach kids where they are.

This week's poll
Do you like the idea of auto insurers switching to a pay-as-you-drive model -- where how, when and where you drive may be monitored?
Yes, I'm all for any approach that can save me money.
No, it's too much like having Big Brother in the back seat.
I'm not sure. I'd like the savings, but I don't know if I'd feel comfortable being monitored.
