DD and I have done the kids Walk video on our exercise on-demand channel on cable a few times. We also do other workouts from that channel and from a couple workout dvd's. She's only 2 1/2 but loves to "exercise" with me.
We also dance around the house, act like animals, small obstacle courses, going for walks, playing at the park, basically anything that involves movement that interest her.
It's so much fun that it doesn't feel like exercise, so why not exercise with the kids.

| This summer I promised if my kids all reached a certain requirement of yard work, reading, un-policed teeth brushing and chores we would invest in a Wii game system. The reward was well worth their cooperation, so a Wii we did buy. It is a great way to sneak in added exercise with the kids. Their sports games are interactive, so you actually have to get off the couch and play like a tennis star, baseball big hitter, and champion prize fighter. It is so much fun, and we all have enjoyed working up a sweat!

Hi i feel exercise done with your children is great. I was 400lbs at one time. I have to loose 50lbs now, why it is harder to loose 50lbs i don't understand,but my 17yr old use to laugh at me working out when he was younger, now he's in shape and in boxing. My 10yr old laughs at me now. I do what i need to do anyway. My 10yr old would always workout with me but stayed chubby, kides would make fun of him in school. I am so proud of him that he continued to workout eat right, he is so into his health i have no problem with his eating habits anymore.He lost over 60lbs feels great about himself. His blood presser went down as well. If they see how i eat and not let certain things in the house sooner or later they will start to do the same thing. My problem is now I'm the fat one they tease. I work out eat right why is it taking so long? but i can't give up. Thanks for all of your inspiration i have read from you.

Oooooh, I forgot Bubbles! Great one 
I agree,  It is way too hot.

I have a 2 yr old and everything I do with her seems like exercise.  She is in constant motion! Seriously though when it isn't quite this hot out (we're setting record highs right now) we go for walks, help her "ride" a big wheel, play t-ball, basketball, catch, tag, just run around, chase bubbles, etc. If it is outside and involves running she's all for it! (Definitely helps me wear me out too!)

Jump Rope, hula hoop, swing, climb, swim, race, play ball, wrestle, and dance. I am an airplane, horse, spider, carnival ride, gymnasium, and bridge. I've been "safe" zone and target for all sorts of games. With my children six, three, and one my muscles get stronger as they get bigger. 
Oh, and I agree...Brendan Fraser is cute. The kids love George of the Jungle  , the Mummy returns, and Looney Tunes: Back in Action.

BOUTROUS23, first let me say I LOVE your pick. Brendan is my secret obsession.
I dance with my kids. Dancing meaning jumping around and being silly. I have a 5yo girl and 2 yo twins. We will go for walks as well.

|
| We set aside 2 days, during the week, to go to the park. First we walk the trail (my daughter in the jogging stroller) and then we go to the kiddie park. Works out great.

| I love to exercise with my kids. They go on bike rides and I jog side by side. Then we play soccer and baseball. I race them on the sidewalk. We do yoga kids DVDS. Basketball. I love to dance with them and we do a jumprope challenge.

| Do any of you exercise with your children? At our home we wrestle, go for walks, and sometimes play loud music and dance crazily to it.
