Why should my child with Down syndrome exercise? Read on:
I am pretty sure this wasn’t written with people who have Down syndrome in mind but I bet the same benefits apply to them as well. We spend a lot of time trying to teach our kids with old school flash cards or high-tech apps. Let’s not forget about the benefit of good old-fashioned exercise and what it does for the body and the BRAIN!
Jake takes first place at swim meet.
Sam demonstrates his strength by doing this off the floor push-up thing about 20 times.
How do your kids get their exercise for the day? Note to self: Go to the gym more and take April with me.

NOTE TO SELF: Dump BF if she starts going to the gym and encouraging me to do the same! Actually, everything in this post is correct – how I wish good intentions equaled action. xoxo
