Wii Fit!


My girls' grandmother Alice bought us a Wii for a family gift this Christmas. I've been wanting a Wii Fit also- so we bought one wrapped it and added it to the family gift to be opened on Christmas day.

I just want to take a minute to rave about the Wii Fit. Some of the activities are very simple and some are more difficult, but all are fun and all target spacific areas of fitness. There are 4 categories: Balance Games, Aerobics, Stregnth Training and Yoga. Since Christmas day I have done a minimum of 30 mintues and all 4 categories every day. Now I'm not saying that I will continue to do the Wii Fit every day for the rest of my life...but I'm on quite a streak and do not plan to stop anytime soon.

My favorite activities are: Step, Boxing, Yoga and the Stregnth Training activities. If you have a Wii already, for the price of 2 games you can buy the Wii Fit....I'd say it's definately worth the investment.

My kids have really enjoyed playing Wii and Wii Fit also. It's different than just sitting around playing video games. You are up being active- playing tennis or bowling...even golf is fun. We have been playing a lot of games of bowling with the kids- its' really fun! (And better than sitting down stairing at the tv)
Call me a geek all day...I don't care. I'm hooked on Wii Fit.

I want one! Maybe we'll get one next year. I think I would use the Fit too - let me know if you keep it up!
