Maternal and Child Health Professional: More outdoor play, if kids are outside they tend to be more active than indoors so getting him outdoors.

Parent: Yeah he does seem to do a bit more when he is outside, yeah. (nodding)

Maternal and Child Health Professional: Yeah so getting him outside more so maybe walking, has he got a little bike or trike?

Parent: He’s got a little trike he likes that. (nodding)

Maternal and Child Health Professional: Yeah maybe getting him out doing that a little bit more, up the street a little bit, what about your partner will help you with getting him moving around a bit more?

Parent: He’s very busy during the week, but the weekends he would probably be very receptive to taking Josh out on the trike or whatever.

Maternal and Child Health Professional:  So a little bit more walking just a little bit more playing around outdoors. He’s only three, so we are not expecting him to do some big physical activity program, it just means getting him outdoors getting him moving about. Maybe on the weekends you could, or your partner could, take him to the park and they could you know kick the ball around and play around on the equipment, or maybe go on a bit of a family outing that involves some walking. (nodding)

Parent: Yeah, yep.
