I once saw a mother taking a walk with one of her kids. I thought it was a great idea for her to get one-on-one time with him. I’m sure this kid doesn’t come home until close to 6 at night or even later, so when can he ride a bike if it’s been dark for more than an hour in the winter? Once the younger siblings were sleeping, she could take him out for 15-20 minutes two or three times a week. This would encourage activity, although not aerobic exercise, even under the guise as just getting time with mommy. Some kids would really love that especially if the house is normally very busy.
