Giveaway: Jump Start Get Moving Family Fitness for Wii

One thing I find challenging is finding time to exercise, and it is especially challenging when my son wants to jump on me right in the middle of doing sit ups, ugh! When Jump Start asked me if I was interested in reviewing their Get Moving Family Fitness I was really excited since it allows me to interact with my son and exercise at the same time, the best of both worlds! This is a game that the entire family can play and you will get a full work out in while having fun. The game is hosted by Brooke Burke, Co-host and champion of Dancing With The Stars. This game will surely get the entire family up and moving!

Get Moving Family Fitness Key Features:

• Design your own character to race and play.

• Build customized routines for extra challenge.
• Compete head to head or play solo.
• Play underwater, on a farm, in Egypt or 8 other exotic locations.

Some of the games include cycling, running, basketball, baseball, football, balancing, and volleyball.

I love that you can pick your location and create your own custom works outs. I have several Wii exercise games and this is my new favorite, and I have to say I was expecting it to be more geared towards children but in my opinion all ages will like this and have a lot of fun and not even realize they are exercising. I got a great work out from the first time using it and look forward to continued use. I don't think I really have any excuses now for not exercising. I am seeing a lot of family fun nights in our future thanks to Get Moving Family Fitness!

The game will be in stores on June 15th and will retail for $29.99 and is rated E for Everyone with Comic Mischief by the ESRB. For purchase details please visit Jump Start HERE.

Review and Giveaway: Give learning a Jump Start

When I was asked to review Jump Start, I was very interested since my 3.5 year old, Will loves to play with my computer. It is hard to find games that are age appropriate for him but JumpStart certainly is appropriate for his age, you just need to help a bit with the navigation.

I do have a bone to pick with Jump Start, I couldn't get Will off the computer the first time we tried it out we were on the computer for hours. What I love about Jump Start is that the learning is actually fun. Will thought he was playing a game. Later that day, (that is once I finally got him off of the computer) I heard him singing some of the songs and he kept asking to play again and again. He had no idea he was learning while playing, which is the way learning should be.

Jump Start is an award-winning adventure-based 3D virtual world that is personalized, your child can create their own character and jump right into the game. There are plenty of areas to help you if you get stuck too.




The JumpStart virtual world is broken into three main segments, each targeted towards a different age range. Story Land (for ages 3-5), Adventure Land (6-8’s) and Futureland (8-10’s)
Each section offers various levels of challenge and game play as your child progresses.

The game is free to try out and lets kids play in one of the world’s themed zones, but to access the majority of the content families will need to pay a $7.99 monthly subscription fee (per family not per child.) You can purchase memberships online or in stores such as Toys R Us, Best Buy and Rite Aid.

Jump Start also has a blog to accompany their main site where you will find many updates.

Will and I had a lot of fun playing/learning with JumpStart and I am thankful for finding a fun, interactive learning game for Will. Would you like to give JumpStart a spin?
