Hop, Skip, and Jump!

      Hello and welcome to my blog. On this blog I will focus on childhood obesity in America. It seems as though the media has infiltrated the lives of American children causing them to be almost addicted to television, video games, and the internet. Their desire to be in the house playing video games, watching television, and online social networking has taken over the opportunity to go outside and play. Playing is a very important tool in a child's life, remaining active keeps a child healthy and fit. It also requires face to face interaction with your friends which improves social skills. My website is going to be an online campaign to get children off of the computer and back on the fields. Im going to use media such as online research, video clips, and photos to show why being active is the right choice for the American youth. My target audience is going to be not only the children but their parents as well. No one has more influential power over children than their parents so I will be sure to focus many of my persuasions upon them. My website should open up the eyes of the people to what the media is really doing to our youth and hopefully it will inspire the children to get out, be active, and be healthy. Thank you for being interested in my campaign and please follow up to learn how to keep your children healthy and active. I hope this goes well for us all.
