Jennifer Pehmoeller Quotes

«The kids have surpassed our goal of $5,000. We are so very proud of them all. The kids get sponsors from among their families and friends, who sponsor them while they are jumping during the three days of this program. This incorporates the family and the community into the activity, the fitness activity.

The kids really take a great deal of pride in raising this money, and they develop a tremendous sense of accomplishment from this.»

They can even exercise while they are watching television, or there are Play Station games that include exercise.»
«One year, we purchased pulse rate monitors, because we teach the children early on how to monitor their heart rate. When they are really young, we show them how to put their hand on their chest and feel their heart beat, and experience their hearts beating faster or slower. As they get older, they can use the wristband heart monitor to monitor their pulse while they are exercising.
