Did you know that, according to the Center of Disease Control and Prevention, about 32% of children and adolescents today — 25 million kids — are obese or overweight? In the past 30 years, the occurrence of obese children has tripled and it is now estimated that one in three children in the U.S. is overweight. Michelle Obama is currently campaigning against childhood obesity and the topic remains on the forefront of the U.S. national agenda. KIDFIT is the premier iPhone®, iPod Touch®, and iPad® fitness application designed to promote healthy lifestyles and combat obesity for kids.

I would like to explore this more. But curious....could you remake pictures actually using toddler photos of the muscles, exercises, etc. Would make it much more fun for children.

Who developed this App and its instructional videos? If it were a Physical Therapist or Personal Trainer, no doubt that would have been mentioned as evidence of authority.
