Via email: When I look at the Wii Fit, I’m not thinking “This will get me fit.”
I’m thinking, “The cat will sit on that.”
And “It looks like a cooler lid.”
But “This will get me fit?”… Not so much.
Note from Jacki: The Wii Fit video‘s kind of funny, but the concept’s not bad. If it helps make our kids less fat, I’m game.
I’ve actually heard of physical therapists using Wiis with teenaged and younger patients who are confined to a hospital room. I haven’t heard of the Wii Fit specifically being used, but for the patients being able to play a video game is a lot more fun than the routine exercises they normally have to do.
