Dec 18, 2015 /prREACH/ -- Allstate Home Leisure, a 4-store retailer selling game rooms, fireplaces, hot tubs, portable spas, wood stoves, inserts, pool tables, billiard tables in the greater Detroit area publishes “3 Ways to Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle for the Family During the Holidays.”
“The holidays are full of fun and parties, and for the most part that means a lot of food and not much exercise,” said Roy Farmer, President of Allstate Home Leisure. “Because the typical holiday season runs for five weeks, adults and children have a hard time staying fit during this busy time. In addition, children are prone to boredom due to extended breaks from school and no idea of how to fill it up in ways that do not involve food or playing video games.”
Here are three ways to maintain a healthy lifestyle for the family during the holidays to help everyone stay fit and still have fun.
Create Healthy Food Alternatives and Choices – There is so much food around during the holidays, and much of it is easy to grab and consume, but not healthy. Make sure all members of the family have access to healthy snack choices during the holidays.
Make dinners ahead of time and freeze them so that there is something healthy to eat when everyone has been out shopping and running around, and are too tired to cook at the end of the day. Finally, before heading out to the big parties eat small, healthy snacks to avoid the desire to eat all of the appetizers and snacks available at the event.
Plan Out Healthy Activities – When kids will be home during school breaks, but there aren’t any family activities planned, find things for them to do around the house that will add to the family’s enjoyment of the holidays, and give them something active to do. Leave a list of chores, or have them develop a game that the family can play when they are together.
Gather Around a Detroit Fireplace – It isn’t just kids that can use a little extra incentive to interact with others during the holidays, and all year round. Adults are just as prone to giving into the desire to pare off and do their own thing. Families have begun to be far apart even when they are all in the same home. Create a place in the house that is a gathering spot and fun place to be for everyone in the home by adding a fireplace to the basement, family room or any living area.
Fireplaces are the quintessential gathering spot and symbol of the holidays. They make great places to enjoy a relaxing evening at any time of the year, and even serve functional purposes of providing warmth and beauty to the room as well.
The ideal area should be accessible for everyone, add plenty of comfortable seating, some floor pillows or even bean bags to make it a place that is soothing and fun. Of course in classic holiday tradition, the family fireplace is a great place to show off holiday greeting cards and hang stockings. They also work great as a backdrop for family pictures.
