Video games help schools get kids moving, exercising more

Tweet

When the faculty at Conlee Elementary School in Las Cruces, N.M. began having students do 5 minutes of Just Dance, an active video game for Nintendo's Wii, at the first of every school day last year, they noticed a trend: Tardiness went down.

When the activity started up again this year, the students cheered and clapped, says physical education teacher Celsa Madrid.
