Video games and TV push kids to move more
New York reports show several children focused programs and games aim to reduce obesity by encouraging activity. Nickelodeon plans LazyTown blending live action and animation with Sportacus and Robbie Rotten. Boohbah toys debut with toddlers to dance. EyeToy for PlayStation 2 uses motion tracking to translate body movement into on screen action. Spider-Man 2 Web Action uses sensors on wrists and ankles for motion mirroring. CDC notes 16 percent of boys and 14.5 percent of girls ages 6 to 11 were obese in 1999 to 2000, higher than 1971 to 1974. Residents like Daniel Decker support moves to engage kids in motion through media.
