#2 current event adding activity to video gamesz fights obesity, study shows science daily (Jan.10,2007)

This article is about making video games more active because children are very focused on screen games but they can be made healthier if activity is a required part of the game. By using the dance video game both groups burned the most calories, but it was considerably more for the obese group just over six times more than sitting still. About eight hours a day children watch T.V. or play video games. Researchers suggest that they should investigate it more because of the obesity in the country.
This article means a lot to me because i think kids should get exercise and I see a lot of kids watching T.V. or playing video games all the time. I think the researchers are doing a good thing for peoples health and parents will like activities in video games like in the wii because their kids are not just sitting on couches watching T.V. or playing video games for the whole day they are going to be keeping active and getting exercise. So I think the researchers are doing a good thing.
