I am aware that children should get an hour of activity a day that raises the heart rate and I'm not sure I'm getting that for dd who is 4 (still pre-school)
What we do:
We walk to pre-school and back 3 days per week which is just over half a mile each way- up a hill coming back. (Unless weather is icy)
Try and get to the playground twice a week on her non pre-school days or at the weekend as she's tired from pre-school
Swimming lesson every weekend- she's a good swimmer so she's getting some proper exercise here for 45 minutes.
No other organised classes, she still gets quite tired so I don't want to overdo it. she likes a potter but doesn't really run around in the garden.
This probably isn't enough- how can I increase without signing her up to gym and dance classes yet?

AIBU?
To ask how much exercise your young children get and how you make sure they get enough?
