With summer over and fall in full swing, it may seem more of a challenge to convince children to head outdoors for playtime.
But for parents looking to keep their kids active in the cooler months, Livestrong.com advisory board member Valerie Waters says the solution may be closer to home than it seems.
“If you want your kids to be active, then you need to be active,” she tells People. “Kids really do mimic what Mommy and Daddy do.”
In addition, she advises parents to not use the increasing cooler temperatures as an excuse to avoid working out.

How do all those celebrities stay in such great shape? Well, it's not by eating these 6 foods!
FitSugar recently polled a few celebrity trainers to find out which foods they would never recommend and a couple of items on the list are quite surprising.
Tara Stiles said to stay away from alcohol. “No one wants to hear this one, but if you want your body to operate optimally and look fantastic — and younger — avoid alcohol," Stiles said.
Lady Gaga's trainer, Harley Pasternack, says grapes and bananas are not your friend. “No one is going to live a shorter life if they have bananas or grapes,” Pasternack said. “A banana is just the densest piece of fruit that you can put in your body, and since it doesn’t have much fiber, it won’t keep you full. Grapes have a special sugar in them called dextrose, which is the...

New mom Jennifer Garner has turned her back on the extreme diets adopted by Tinseltown mothers in favor of healthy eating and a light exercise regime. The Alias star, who gave birth to daughter Violet last December, has enlisted the help of fitness guru Valerie Waters to shed the extra weight gained during her pregnancy. Waters says, "Jen is on target to getting back her pre-baby figure through moderate exercising and sensible eating. She's not jumping on that celeb mom bandwagon of getting super-skinny, super-quickly. She is more concerned about keeping healthy and spending time with Violet than anything else. So because she's a busy career woman and a hands-on mum who nurses the baby, it's unrealistic for her to aim for a rigorous exercise regime. I think it's great that Jen doesn't obsess about her weight and is losing it at a sensible rate."...
