Try to incorporate it as a regular routine into their schedule and your little ones will be getting enough work out for the day.
The Game of Tag is your Best Friend
This classic game is not only fun but is also an excellent means to burn of that pent up energy in your kids. Keep it for evenings in the summer when the outside temperature isn’t so hostile and preferably keep the activity outdoors to avoid any knocking off of things indoors.

There are many activities that you can do with your kids that will allow them to burn off that extra energy in a fun way.

So next time you need to get your backyard dig, ask your kids to help you out. Same goes for lawn mowing and other such activities. Ask your kids to extend a helping hand and then appreciate their effort. The aim is to make them get some physical activity not to get the work done.
