Kelly Holmes, Britain's best loved athlete and winner of 2 Olympic gold medals, combines her knowledge of fitness and love for children in this guide to keeping kids active. Setting out to do for exercise what Jamie Oliver did for school dinners, Kelly has her sights set on a more active population. Since taking up the position of National School Sports Champion, Kelly has made it her mission to help the nation's kids get fit and healthy. Here, she reaches out to parents with simple advice on what exercise their children should be doing at each different age between 4 and 11. She makes exercise fun and interesting as well as showing how the body works. Kelly encourages children to be more active on a daily basis, and motivates parents to take an active part in their kids' development. Published just in time for school holidays, this book is an absolute must for healthy kids and parents.
