It’s summer time at the Roost and it’s hot. Our summers are short here so we try to take advantage of being outside when we can.
But what do you do what it’s too hot to go outside or there are too many mosquitoes eating you alive to make outdoor fun comfortable?
It’s for days like that when having a Wii comes in handy.
I was quite excited to try out Jumpstart’s Get Moving Family Fitness game. I am always on the look our for good fitness games to go with our Wii.
Brook Burke (of Dancing with the Stars fame) hosts over 15 activities (I love boxing and volleyball) and your choice of 11 exotic locations (the beach is my fav!) You can also use the Wii Balance Board with this game but it’s not required.
The graphics are in the typical Mii style. You can customize your profile in the game itself. Not only can you play each activity separately but they are also bundled into convenient routines. This is great for someone like me who does like to think too much about what I am going to do next when I exercise. You can even create your own routines if you like.
At the age of 3, Get Moving was a bit too difficult for H to play head to head with me. Some of the games needed more than one action at a time to complete – not difficult for an older child or adult. Even though she couldn’t “play” the game, I gave her a Wii-mote so that she could mimic the activities as I did them. (She thought she was playing too!) I look forward to when she is able to really play along – we will see if she has her father’s competitive spirit!
Get Moving Family Fitness is a much more family friendly fitness game than some of the other Wii fitness games I have tried. The cartoon-ish characters appeal to the kids making it fun for them too. It will also be a great addition to my Wii fitness library for when I want to switch things up!
