- Go for daily walks with your entire family. If your children are old enough to ride a bike or rollerblade, let them while you walk, jog, ride a bike or rollerblade yourself; - Get a baby jogger. You don't have to run or jog; walking at a fast pace will do just as good, but you should get a baby jogger they're much easier and smoother than a regular stroller for this; - Whenever you and your spouse or friends have free time, use it to go for a hike, a day of fun with kids in park, etc. When kids are at a park you'll get a lot of exercise because I'm sure you're aware that all children love to go up and down on slide, swing etc. and they always want their parents to do it with them, so do it; - At home, get yourself a stationary bike.
