I wanted to get a Wii for my kids because I thought that it would allow them to play fun games and help them to be active. We started saving our money to get one and then a friend of ours bought one for us as a Christmas gift (but gave it to us 2 months early! LOL) Anyway, the kids have been playing it and I have been able to use it as motivation to finish their school work. I had not really taken the time to play it until last night and now I am hooked! I really love the Wii Sports Resort 100 pin Bowling. I played 4 full games this morning before 6:30 and no one else in the house was awake! During nap time for my daycare kids, I played a game with my boys (the youngest beat me) and then played 2 more games tonight. I think I may need an intervention. Ha Ha I am so sore from playing so many games today. It is great that my family is having fun together and able to be physically active.
I now have Wii Fit on my wish list. That will really help with my goal of losing 100 lbs by my birthday. I would love to hear about your favorite Wii games that help you be more active and burn calories while having fun with your family.
