Kids need to exercise, says overweight MP

The Government has launched a new website that uses online games to try and get children to be more active in the real world. The website is here.

In launching the site, Youth Affairs Minister Nanaia Mahuta said the website was another way to encourage children to get active (like making a flax dart , perhaps) - and to eat the right pies and chips food.

She should start making some flax darts. Then she should update this crappy website to advise kids not just to throw, but to retrieve the dart - preferably runing to retrieve it.After all, that's the excercise bit that should BE on a site supposed to get rid of obesity and encourage exercise. Look at her, obesity personified!


update I see Whale Oil thought so too.
