70. PE Curriculum for Lifetime Health! with Spencer Aiken
There is a difference between physical education and physical activity.
In order to set our kids up for lifetime health, we need to teach them physical literacy.
However, this is more than just getting them a gym membership. You have to find someone that knows what they’re talking about and how to teach it, especially to kids.
